Welcome to ISI 5163A, Political Economy of Information, Winter 2014. The Syllabus is now available here. This is a reading-intensive course with most of the assignments being summaries of the readings for each week, so if you'd like to get ahead my suggest would be to get started on the reading. Please note that the one-page limit for reading summaries is firm.
Following are some notes on resources that might be of interest and relevant to the class.
