Across the world, governments are showing a growing interest in using behavioural economic research to inform the design of nudges which, some suggest, might encourage citizens to adopt beneficial patterns of behaviour. In this fascinating collection, leading academic economists, psychologists and philosophers reflect on how behavioural economic findings can be used to help inform the design of policy initiatives in the areas of health, education, the environment, personal finances and worker remuneration. Each chapter is accompanied by a shorter 'response' that provides critical commentary and an alternative perspective. This accessible book will interest academic researchers, graduate students and policy-makers across a range of disciplinary perspectives"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Ambiguity aversion and the UK government's response to swine flu / Adam Oliver -- A response to Oliver / Christopher Exeter -- Models of governance of public services: empirical and behavioural analysis of "econs" and "humans" / Gwyn Bevan and Barbara Fasolo -- A response to Bevan and Fasolo / Charitini Stavropoulos -- From irresponsible knaves to responsible knights for just 5 p.: behavioural public policy and the environment / Kate Disney, Julian LeGrand, and Giles Atkinson -- A response to Disney, LeGrand, and Atkinson / Richard Cookson -- The more who die, the less we care: psychic numbing and genocide / Paul Slovic and Daniel VaÌstfjaÌll -- A response to Slovic and VaÌstfjaÌll / Jonathan Wolff -- Healthy habits: some thoughts on the role of public policy in healthful eating and exercise under limited rationality / Matthew Rabin -- A response to Rabin / Alex Voorhoeve -- Confessing one's sins but still committing them: transparency and the failure of disclosure / Sunita Sah, Daylian M.
