In the economics of information, the essential task is to examine the condition of asymmetric information under which the information gap is exploited. For the economics of risk, it is important to investigate types of behavior including risk aversion, risk sharing, and risk prevention, and to reexamine the classical expected utility approach and the relationships among several types of the changes in risk. Few books have ever analyzed topics in applied economics with regard to information and risk. This book provides a comprehensive collection of applied analyses, while also revisiting certain basic concepts in the economics of information and risk. The book consists of two parts. In Part I, several aspects of applied economics are investigated, including public policy, labor economics, and political economics, from the standpoint of the economics of (asymmetric) information. First, several basic frameworks of the incentive mechanism with regard to transaction-specific investment are assessed, then various tools for market design and organization design are explored. In Part II, mathematical measures of risk and risk aversion are examined in more detail, and readers are introduced to stochastic selection rules governing choice behavior under uncertainty. Several types of change in the random variable for the cumulative distribution function (CDF) and probability distribution function (PDF) are discussed. In closing, the part investigates the comparative static results of these changes in CDF or PDF on the general decision model, incorporating uncertain situations in applied economics. . 606 $aFinance, Public 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpace in economics 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aEconomics 606 $aFinance, Public 606 $aInsurance 606 $aPublic Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34000 606 $aRegional/Spatial Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49000 606 $aPolitical Economy/Economic Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W46000 606 $aR & D/Technology Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W43000 606 $aPublic Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/611000 606 $aInsurance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/626030 615 0$aFinance, Public. 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpace in economics. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aFinance, Public. 615 0$aInsurance. 615 14$aPublic Economics. 615 24$aRegional/Spatial Science. 615 24$aPolitical Economy/Economic Systems. 615 24$aR & D/Technology Policy. 615 24$aPublic Finance. 615 24$aInsurance. 676 $a330.0151 702 $aHosoe$b Moriki$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKim$b Iltae$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910409678103321 996 $aApplied Economic Analysis of Information and Risk$92266500 997 $aUNINA
