Abstract

Zusammenfassung Der diesjährige Nobelpreisträger Richard H. Thaler ist einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit vor allem durch sein mit Cass R. Sunstein gemeinsam verfasstes Buch zum Nudging bekannt geworden. Tatsächlich hat er in den vergangenen 40 Jahren die Entwicklung der Verhaltensökonomie entscheidend mitgeprägt und vorangebracht. Thaler hat die Annahmen hinter dem Modell des Homo oeconomicus untersucht und die Abweichungen menschlichen Verhaltens von den Rationalitätsannahmen auf zwei wesentliche Ursachen zurückgeführt: kognitive Einschränkungen und Mängel bei der Selbstkontrolle. Neben den Rationalitätsannahmen beziehen sich seine Forschungen aber auch auf Überlegungen zur Grundhaltung von Wirtschaftssubjekten gegenüber anderen und deren Auswirkungen auf ihr wirtschaftliches Handeln.
