The message of @S_Stantcheva superb TED Talk: researchers should “listen” to people & gather information about their perceptions & views – using rigorous large online surveys, that are well-designed & targeted - that can help devise optimal policies 2/22
Our perceptions determine our votes for different policies. This is relevant to ensure people dont fall for easy solutions. In a paper last year e.g., @S_Stantcheva, Alesina & A Miano show how striking & widespread misperceptions about migration are. 3/22
