| | | APSA_NY12-301 | | Presidential Symposium: Minding the Markets: How Psychoanalysis Can Help to Build New Economics and Finance Thinking Speakers: Robert A. Johnson, MA, PhD (Exec Director of the Institute of New Economic Thinking); Professor David Tuckett (London, England); Warren R. Procci, MD, President (Pasadena, CA) APsaA’s international colleague, David Tuckett, has sought to contribute to the development of a new field of “emotional finance” with a specific interest in understanding the recent and continuing financial crisis. Human emotion has a critical impact on financial markets and, until very recently, economic theories have failed to take this into account. At the heart of the worst financial crisis in decades is a failure to organize markets in a way that puts controls on the very human emotion and behavior which trading unleashes. Robert Johnson and David Tuckett each speak on this subject and then lead a discussion concerning how psychological and psychoanalytic concepts can offer considerable assistance in understanding the sometimes irrational behavior of people and markets. | | MP3 | | $10.00 | | $10.00 | |
