JOIN VIRTUALLY! Non-Economic Consequences and Implications of Economic Interventions and Policies
Instead of our traditional format with one person presenting on a paper, this will be a round-table discussion on the topic "Non-economic consequences of economic interventions and policies," where you are invited to share a short example from your own research experience that speaks to this topic.
We hope that participants will be able to share examples from their fieldwork/studies in which they have encountered findings that were not originally intended to be studied by the researcher. Sometimes these will be non-economic findings, sometimes they will be findings that are just not typical for economists to study. These are the kinds of things that would be useful for inter-disciplinary discussions – you might have run into something in your own work that is not in your area of expertise but might be something typically studied by other social scientists. The idea would be for each volunteer to talk to the group for 5-8 minutes and leave some time for general discussion.
