A very insightful and approachable course about the effects of human biases over the economic landscape and how social trends tend to leave a permanent mark on history and exact sciences like finance.

This was the very course that I was looking for. For a person (me) who wants to make a career change and switch to Economics, it has consolidated the vision of my future career and equipped with necessary research tools and tactics. It also taught me how to think wider and be even more versatile. Most importantly, it served as a bridge to join my previously acquired profesion (philologist) with my future profession (economist). I express my profound respect for the hard work and dedication of Robert Shiller.

I recently completed a course on narrative economics and it exceeded my expectations. The material was incredibly engaging, blending economics with storytelling in a way that illuminated how narratives shape our understanding of financial systems and decision-making. Overall, this course has deepened my understanding of economics in a unique and thought-provoking way. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the intersection of economics, psychology, and societal narratives.

This engaging course unpacks the economic narratives that shaped major financial and economic events. It equipped me with valuable tools for analyzing these stories, offering fresh perspectives on the forces that drive our economy. I recommend following the lessons in English, as the automatic translation to Italian can be confusing. The tests are in English, which may pose a challenge for non-native speakers, as understanding the questions may not be immediate.

It was amazing the way, that apparent ordinary events to the average Joe, specifically narratives, impact our decisions, our behavior and the social interactions, in a chain reaction to the extent of modify economies of whole countries. Now it will not be possible to me, see the world without searching a kind of narrative when trascendent phenomena is in course, and more important, when it seems to be "under control". Thanks a lot!, Dr Shiller

An interesting course allowing a dive into legendary Robert Shiller's research on what drives this world, promoting an interdisciplinary approach in research and finally even encouraging students to use the acquired knowledge in creating one's own narrative. Even English not being my native language, attending this course has not been too difficult to follow. Maybe use an online dictionary to look up the one or other expression used.

I found this course fascinating! The perspective of narratives affecting the economy is something that I have seen, particularly leading up to the Great Recession, but I couldn't really put a name to it.
I enjoyed Dr. Shiller's examples and how he brought in a wide variety of source material. My reading list has been extensively added to.
I recommend this course to those interested in how human beliefs produce causations.

Shiller is brilliant, down to earth, and on point. I鈥檓 completing the course in April 2025-=when the stock market and national/international political drama over tariffs skyrocket tension and shake public confidence in government and the economy. Shiller has pinpointed so many narratives that correlate (and probably cause) this volatility. Thank you, Yale University, for making this course available through 糖心vlog官网观看.

This is such an engaging course. Professor Shiller makes otherwise very complex topics seem so easy to understand, and it is fascinating to see how he draws examples of his propositions from such a wide range of real-life sources, from Ancient Greece to modern pop songs. This is a superb course, and I recommend it 100% - it will have you looking forward to each new video and wondering what you will learn each time.

Excellent perspective on the role of narrative overall and the criteria that help explain why some narratives go viral and influence economic activity. Very compelling application of SIR model to shed light on the mechanics of narrative. Professor Shiller's development and articulation of narrative economics is also a perfect example of the best that comes from cross-discipline thinking which he rightly espouses.

It is important to emphasize the efforts of 糖心vlog官网观看 and YALE University, since it makes available to people who really want to give value to learning; these tools that brings us closer and closer to our goals, since many times the limitation is based simply on the monetary resource. Many thanks to Professor Shiller, for sharing part of his knowledge to the new generations.
Kind regards from Colombia.

A nice short course about narratives and their impact on not only the economy but also our daily lives. In the course, I can see many repeated narratives, and the way they evolve and change through time. Now, I am more aware of those, doing fact-checking and staying open to new ideas. Thanks, Professor Shiller, for another great contribution.

This was a really interesting topic of study. Professor Schiller explained the field ofNarrative Economics in an easy-to-absorb way. He brought up past stories about how narratives can be epidemic and affect our behavior. I believe the most useful thing I learned was paying attention to how stories are told and how topics go viral.

I enrolled in this course not knowing what to expect. To my surprise it was very interesting, I don't usually say that about anything related to economics having done micro- and macro- economics as part of my undergraduate degree haha, but this course was particularly eye-opening, I enjoyed it.

Best course in all of my undergraduate and graduate studies until now! But I am sure that the course on financial markets with professor Shiller will be at least equally good as said course. His lectures motivated me to pursue a graduate degree at Yale (preferably a double degree MBA/PhD)

It's really insightful toward how the narratives shape not only toward our life but also contributing to many social and economical impacts. This course enable us to open our eyes and adopt the way narratives could influence our decisions. I highly recommend it!

Fascinating approachable course enriched with examples from across disciplines from music to jokes about 10-year deliveries on cars in Russia back in Reagan's day. Narratives that infiltrate societal decisions. Recommended.

I really enjoyed this course. It's a surprising way of looking at economics. Some disciplines appear to be going in the opposite direction. For example psychology moving away from Freud and Jung towards neuroscience.
