Veblen-Clark lecture: Networks and Social Capital in Determining Patterns of Inequality and Immobility by Dr. Matthew O. Jackson, William D. Eberle Professor of Economics, Stanford University

How do people’s social networks affect their economic trajectories, and what do we know about how those networks form? How can we overcome the divides in networks that lead to inequality and immobility?  What are the potential benefits and dangers of social engineering?  Dr. Jackson will show data and theories that help answer these questions.
