An economist in the public space

Jean Tirole

Voprosy Ekonomiki, 2017, issue 8

Abstract: This third chapter of the book “The economy of the common good” considers the status of academic economists as public intellectuals. It discusses the pitfalls economists face when engaging in public debates, in providing expertise for businesses or governments. It also makes some normative claims as to the socially best form of interaction between economics and practice.
