The Choice Group

The LSE Choice Group is a group of philosophers, political scientists and economists based mainly at LSE with a shared interest in the theory of rational decision making in individuals and groups and its application to economic, political and social questions. Choice Group seminars take place most Wednesday evenings during term time and are open to all.
