The Economics of Deceptive Products
20 May 2021
The lecture will be dedicated to the industrial organization of deceptive practices by firms, like tricky contracts or unclear/hidden prices, when consumers are not perfectly rational. The speaker will give a taste of cutting-edge behavioral economics, lots of interesting issues that people might be able to relate to from everyday life, and many of which can be illustrated with simple examples.
