A book in draft on Bounded Rationality and Public Policy.
What are the implications of current research in experimental and behavioural economics for public economics? The normative issues seem to me most intractable, but I've done work with Bob Sugden that considers some of the issues. Positive issues are equally important: governments don't just tax and spend - they frame.
