Information Cascades and Social Learning
Abstract
We review the theory of information cascades and social learning. Our goal is to describe in a relatively integrated and accessible way the more important themes, insights and applications of the literature as it has developed over the last thirty years. We also highlight open questions and promising directions for further theoretical and empirical exploration.
Additional Information
We thank the editor, Steven Durlauf; and three anonymous referees for very helpful comments.Attached Files
