最終更新日: 2020年11月16日

お知らせ | Announcement

  • [2020/9/28] --- 初回講義は10月1日です。最初の2週間(計4回)については、Zoomを使ってオンラインで行います。履修学生にはZoomのURLをメールにて送ります。履修しているにも関わらず、講義当日の10時までに連絡が届いていない場合には、安田まで問合せて下さい。

  • [2020/1/19] --- 講義は原則として日本語で行います。ただし、質問・ディスカッションは英語で行っても構いません。

講義概要・目的 | Course Objective and Content

  • 近年、理論と実践の両面において発展が著しいメカニズムデザイン/遂行理論について学びます。

  • 優れた日本語のテキストである坂井[2014], 佐野[2019], 坂井・藤中・若山[2008]を輪読します。

  • この分野の研究スタイルに慣れ、関連論文を読みこなす力を身につけるのが目的です。

  • 学部上級レベルのミクロ経済学の知識を前提とします。抽象的な数理モデルの記述や、数学的な定理の証明などを行いますので、この手の作業が苦手な方にはしんどい講義になるでしょう。目安として、たとえば「厚生経済学の第一基本定理の証明を(解説を読んでも)ほとんど理解できない」という方には履修をおすすめしません。

成績評価 | Grading Policy

  • クラス内での発表と期末レポートで評価します。

  • 発表について

    • 一人につき、報告45分(質疑応答15分程度)の長さを目安に準備してください。

    • 聴講のみの学生にも一回は発表してもらいます。

  • 期末レポートについて

    • 次のいずれかを2〜5ページ程度にまとめてe-mailに添付して提出してください。

      • メカニズムデザインに関する研究アイデアや論文(の原型)

      • 講義で直接カバーしなかった関連論文・書籍などに関するコメント

      • 関連するトピックのサーベイ

    • 使用言語は、日本語・英語どちらでも構いません。

    • 聴講のみの学生は提出しなくて構いません。
