Economics of Disasters
 This class examines
a variety of disasters—from the Great Chicago Fire to the Asian Tsunami and
Hurricane Katrina. How can the lens of economics give students new insights into
how people behave during and after these events? When disasters strike what can
markets do to relieve human suffering? These events are “teachable moments” that
open up understanding of basic concepts such as scarcity, incentives, moral
hazard, and unintended consequences.
