Knowledge and Institutional Change

January 5, 2017 by admin

This 2000 paper was written while I was a Senior Advisor to Joe Stiglitz, who was then Chief Economist of the World Bank. The paper attempts set forth systematically some of the knowledge questions that determine certain strategies for institutional change. These themes were later developed at more length in my 2005 book, Helping People Help Themselves, U. of Michigan Press.
