ERINN AT THE CSAE
The CSAE (Centre for the Study of African Economies, University of Oxford), in collaboration with the ERINN (Economic Research on Identity, Norms and Narratives) Network, has several research projects that focus on how social forces - particularly identity, norms, and narratives - can shape economic outcomes. Economic activity takes place in a social context which structures and co-determine people's preferences, beliefs, and constraints. The role of these projects is to bring these processes to the forefront of economic analysis.
