Max Weber fellows lecture series
Date: Tuesday 9 March 2010
Time: 6-7pm
Venue: Room 1.14, New Academic Building
Speaker: Yang Lu
Government accountability for its policy planning is essential for good policy outcomes. How, then, should a government design its policy while recognizing public scepticism over whether its current plans will in fact be executed? What is the best way for a government to use its current policy to actively build up its credibility? And how can a government with a high level of credibility take the best advantage of it during times of turmoil? This lecture will address these questions using an economic model.
Yang Lu is Max Weber Fellow in Economics, European University Institute (EUI), Florence. Seven Max Weber Fellows from the EUI will visit LSE March 8th - 11th to give a series of talks as part of a joint initiative by APD, Academic and Professional Development division.
This event is free and open to all with no ticket required. Entry is on a first come, first served basis. For more information contact Nick Byrne, n.byrne@lse.ac.uk|.
This lecture will be followed by School Choice: Assigning fairly and efficiently| at 7pm.
