From Nobel Prizeâ€"winning economist and New York Times bestselling author Robert Shiller, a new way to think about how popular stories help drive economic events
In a world in which internet troll farms attempt to influence foreign elections, can we afford to ignore the power of viral stories to affect economies? In this groundbreaking book, Nobel Prizeâ€"winning economist and New York Times bestselling author Robert Shiller offers a new way to think about the economy and economic change. Using a rich array of historical examples and data, Shiller argues that studying popular stories that affect individual and collective economic behaviorâ€"what he calls "narrative economics"â€"has the potential to vastly improve our ability to predict, prepare for, and lessen the damage of financial crises, recessions, depressions, and other major economic events.
Spread through the public in the form of popular stories, ideas can go viral and move marketsâ€"whether it's the belief that tech stocks can only go up, that housing prices never fall, or that some firms are too big to fail. Whether true or false, stories like theseâ€"transmitted by word of mouth, by the news media, and increasingly by social mediaâ€"drive the economy by driving our decisions about how and where to invest, how much to spend and save, and more. But despite the obvious importance of such stories, most economists have paid little attention to them. Narrative Economics sets out to change that by laying the foundation for a way of understanding how stories help propel economic events that have had led to war, mass unemployment, and increased inequality.
The stories people tellâ€"about economic confidence or panic, housing booms, the American dream, or Bitcoinâ€"affect economic outcomes. Narrative Economics explains how we can begin to take these stories seriously. The result may be Robert Shiller's most important book to date.

Narrative Economics 下载 mobi epub pdf 电子书##也许是我对经济学没有足够好的直觉,读这本书的时候感觉章节之间内在联系并不是很强,很多时候作者会跳回很多章之前,说着重复的内容。把叙事和传播学联系在一起这样的视角非常新颖,但是除了大萧条中的frugality narrative之类的少数的几个例子,作者似乎没有足够的论据说明叙事能怎样反过来影响经济。书读到后面也就更像是纯粹的描述而缺少argumentation了。这是我有些失望的一点。3.5/5吧
评分· 叙事容易理解,通过人际网络传播,可以像流行病一样扩散。叙事的力量是无穷的,因为人的注意力容量就那么大。 · 叙事完不完整不重要,是不是真实、是故事还是笑话也不重要,但人们愿意谈起它,因为它能激发情感、行动、关切、好奇。 · 叙事喜欢区分“我们”与“他们”,多...
评分这本书可以和前几天听的那本《把自己当做方法》对照着听。作者是诺贝尔经济学奖得主,诺奖作者写的书,可以作为一个专题,都拿来听一听。 既然叫做“叙事经济学”,“叙事”就是讲故事,那本书自然也必须要生动一些,不能只有理论。所以作者讲了两个重要的案例。 第一个:关于...
评分##很啰嗦,叙事起的作用和索罗斯说的reflexivity相通,在社会中,人们的主观认识影响客观现实并构成客观现实的一部分,主观和客观相互作用,相互反馈,影响社会。
评分##对1929~1933 年的美国叙事不感兴趣 对美国 1850~1980年的经历没兴趣 个人阅历只对2000年后的叙事感兴趣 我理解的 “叙事经济学” = 口碑营销 营销炒作这事儿 互联网运营岂不是手到擒来 总结得核心思想 “叙事可以理解为讲故事,这个故事如何打动人,深入人心,甚至在几百年后...
