    • Jun032024ERINN 20249:15am, 1 day 8 hours 45 minutes, Palazzo Giustinian Lolin, Venice

      The ERINN (Economic Research on Identity Norms and Narratives) Network brings together committed researchers who share a common vision concerning the centrality of social forces – particularly identity, norms, and narratives – in shaping economic outcomes. The basic premise is that economic activity takes place in social contexts, which structure and co-determine people’s preferences, beliefs, and constraints. The role of this network of researchers is to bring these processes to the forefront of economic analysis.

      ERINN will be hosting this year's annual conference in the University of Warwick's home in Venice.
