Check out this recent paper “Embodied economics: how bodily information shapes the social coordination dynamics of decision-making” by Olivier Oullier and Frederic Basso. To date, experiments in economics are restricted to situations in which individuals are not influenced by the physical…

Embodied Economics

Here’s a freely available download of an article entitled “Embodied economics: how bodily information shapes the social coordination dynamics of decision-making” from the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. The article references many of the major embodiment theorists and refreshingly there is much on Hayek and of course The Sensory Order.

The Social Epistemology of Experimental Economics

A new book by Ana Cordeiro dos Santos has come to my attention.
