Description
Narrative Economics: How Stories Go Viral and Drive Major Economic Events by Robert J. Shiller explores how popular stories can affect individual and collective economic behavior, with potential to improve our ability to predict and prepare for major economic events. Shiller argues that studying the impact of these "narrative economics" stories has the potential to vastly improve our understanding of financial crises, recessions, depressions, and other significant economic events. By examining how ideas are transmitted through word of mouth, news media, and social media, Shiller reveals how stories can drive economic decisions and shape market movements. This book sets out to bridge the gap between economics and popular storytelling, shedding new light on the role of narratives in shaping our economic lives.
