The climate crisis, COVID crisis, the geo-political situation in Ukraine, and the energy crisis should change our behaviour, our institutions, our politics, and so on. However, we see little evidence of these crises triggering a “rational” response at both the individual and societal levels.
Behavioural economics is a field that aims to understand decision-making and behaviour by integrating behavioural science, psychology and economics. The principles of behavioural economics have major consequences on how people live their lives. The discipline assumes that decision-making is at its core irrational and, therefore, by understanding the impact these principles have on our behaviour, we can actively work to shape our realities.
