恩斯特·费尔

1.恩斯特·费尔简介

恩斯特·费尔（Ernst Fehr），出生于1956年，毕业于维也纳大学经济学，获得博士学位。1989年，费尔在伦敦经济与政治大学担任研究助理。1989年至1991年，费尔成为维也纳科技大学的经济与经济政治系的助理教授。1993年起成为该系的副教授。同年出任了维也纳路德维西·伯茨曼经济研究中心主任。1994年，费尔晋升为苏黎世大学经济学教授，主持行为经济学的研究工作。

2.恩斯特·费尔的研究

恩斯特·费尔发表的作品大多与“神经经济学”相关(一个研究人的大脑如何做出货币金融判断的跨学科领域)，除此之外，恩斯特·费尔还对“信任，公平，互惠”等问题有所研究。

费尔最突出的成就是在行为经济学领域。行为经济学是一门试图将心理学的研究成果融入标准经济学理论的科学。行为经济学尝试对非理性行为进行研究，打破了主流经济学的界限及视域，在“现实人”的基础上发展了主流学派的“经济人”概念。费尔主张关注人们在经济交流中对公平或合作偏好的决定。这让经济学家们将视野转向人类的行为因素对于经济决策等的影响研究。这种改变对主流经济学的部分假设起到了修正和补充的作用。 为此，费尔也被誉为仅次于马克思的第二伟大的德语经济学家。
