Behavioral science is playing an increasing role in public policy,
and it is raising new questions about fundamental issues - the role
of government, freedom of choice, paternalism, and human welfare.
In diverse nations, public officials are using behavioral findings
to combat serious problems - poverty, air pollution, highway
safety, COVID-19, discrimination, employment, climate change, and
occupational health. Exploring theory and practice, this Element
attempts to provide one-stop shopping for those who are new to the
area and for those who are familiar with it. With reference to
nudges, taxes, mandates, and bans, it offers concrete examples of
behaviorally informed policies. It also engages the fundamental
questions, include the proper analysis of human welfare in light of
behavioral findings. It offers a plea for respecting freedom of
choice - so long as people's choices are adequately informed and
free from behavioral biases.
