New developments in the theory of risk and uncertainty will be applied to the central economic policy choices facing Australia; those connected with globalisation and microeconomic reform. Projects in this program will show how the latest advances in economic theory can help to illuminate the major issues in the Australian public debate, from the role of government and the market to the assessment of standards of living. The research program will also help to bridge the gap between economics and other social science.
