In recent years, 'nudge units' or 'behavioral insights teams' have
been created in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and
other nations. All over the world, public officials are using the
behavioral sciences to protect the environment, promote employment and
economic growth, reduce poverty, and increase national security. In
this book, Cass R. Sunstein, the eminent legal scholar and
best-selling co-author of Nudge (2008), breaks new ground with a deep
yet highly readable investigation into the ethical issues surrounding
nudges, choice architecture, and mandates, addressing such issues as
welfare, autonomy, self-government, dignity, manipulation, and the
constraints and responsibilities of an ethical state. Complementing
the ethical discussion, The Ethics of Influence: Government in the Age
of Behavioral Science contains a wealth of new data on people's
attitudes towards a broad range of nudges, choice architecture, and
mandates.
