Methodological Themes

Each EVE workshop focused on one or more of the following fundamental concerns:

Rational choice and decision-making

  • Social psychology and individual behaviour
  • Preference formation/construction

    Explaining and understanding 'anomalies' in valuation studies

    Preference formation and the role of information

The character of the environment as a 'commodity'

  • Complexity, ecosystems functioning (rivet popper problem)
  • Moral issues

    The role of markets and exchange values

    Scientific information

Acceptable and fair public decision processes

  • Consensus is not always the goal
  • CBA as a treasury tool versus public participation

    Evolution and design of alternative institutions
