Daniel F. Stone
Associate Professor of Economics, Chair of the Economics Department
I've been teaching in the Economics department at Bowdoin since 2012. Prior to this I was assistant professor at Oregon State University from 2008-2012, and I received my econ PhD from Johns Hopkins in 2008. My teaching and research interests are: microeconomics, behavioral economics, game theory, information and uncertainty, political media and polarization, and socially responsible capitalism. I've written a (non-technical) book on the behavioral economics of affective polarization, the hyper problem that prevents us from solving other problems. Open-access e-version here and here are a few interviews about it.
Students: if you ever need a 4th for spikeball, let me know!
