Oxford University and CERGE-EI Organize International Conference
September 17, 2014
Scholars from around the world are converging on Oxford, UK to participate in the “Rational Inattention and Related Theories” conference which takes place on September 17—19th, 2014. Co-organized by the University of Oxford and CERGE-EI, the conference marks the most important annual event in the ‘Rational Inattention’ field of economic research.
An impressive roster of international experts will attend and present their latest ideas. CERGE-EI will be represented by two of its faculty members, Filip Matějka and Jakub Steiner. Several CERGE-EI students will also attend.
The ‘Rational Inattention’ research agenda addresses the economic implications of human inability to digest the plethora of information available to them—be it about the current state of financial markets, skills of particular employees, or properties of mortgage contracts. Applications of Rational Inattention research span monetary economics, labor economics, gender and racial discrimination, international trade, and market regulation.
This year’s conference follows the first “Rational Inattention and Related Theories” conference hosted by CERGE-EI in Prague in June of 2012.
