Summer school "Why isn't ethics a behavioural science?"
The summer school is organized by by Econometica (Centro interuniversitario per l’etica economica e la responsabilità sociale d’impresa),
LaSER (Laboratory for Social Responsibility, Ethics and Rational Choice), and the
University of Trento, Department of Economics, and will take place in
Pergina Valsugana, Trento, Italy, 23-24 September 2008.
The idea behind the school is that our understanding of the role of social preferences in shaping social norms and institutions will be enhanced if we manage to integrate three sides of the current research. First, the theory of bounded rationality and learning in games. Second, the more sophisticated approach to people’s preferences pioneered by behavioural economists, which incorporates altruism and spitefulness, a taste for reciprocity, feelings of guilt and shame and other moral emotions.
Finally, the experimental research on the way in which flesh-and-bone individuals make their decisions in strategic situations.

University of Bologna - Bologna, Italy
PhD Program in Economics
The PhD Program offered by the Department of Economics at the University of
Bologna (DSE). This program aims at training students for a career as economists in
academic institutions or in research departments of corporations, public organizations,
financial institutions and the government.
The program has a standard organization and is taught in English. In the first year students
are asked to take six courses in quantitative methods, mcroeconomics and
macroeconomics. By the end of the first year they will also have to choose a field of
specialization and a research supervisor.
In the second year, students will choose six more advanced courses consistent with their
field of specialization. The rest of the program is devoted to work on the dissertation. To this
aim students will be asked to present their papers in the monthly PhD informal meetings and
in the more formal second and third year PhD forums.
The considerable diversification of research areas covered by the members of the DSE and
their international reputation provide an outstanding environment where students of most
fields in economics may find research ideas and tight guidance for their doctoral studies.
The department of Economics of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia is a partner
institution in the PhD Program.
