The Economics of Corruption 2014: Seeking the Nudges for Reform
|
The 2014 Economics of Corruption will focus on experimental and behavioral approaches to corruption and governance.
Findings from the lab and the field are surveyed, linked to survey-data and confronted with theory.
Interactive tools such as games, presentations and case studies involve participants
and make them acquainted with today's challenges. Prof. Johann Graf Lambsdorff and his team have
spearheaded models for reform related to such issues as
contract penalties, compliance systems, debarment, intermediaries, procurement, leniency and corporate liability.
Participants are introduced into this body of research.
They work in groups to develop and implement their own experiments and discuss their findings.
PhD-students are invited to present their research (15 min. presentation + 5 min. discussion).
There are no tuitioon fees. The course is directed towards PhD and Master-students in the social sciences (political science,
law, economics, business administration, sociology, psychology) who are applying experimental methods in their respective fields
and are willing to exchange ideas across disciplinary boundaries.
