| Research Abstract |
Using behavioral economics, cognitive economics and neuroeconomics that have investigated risk perception of human beings, we study theoretical and empirical problems of food crisis that are, so to speak, anomalies to be difficult for the standard economics to analyze. Furthermore, by the feedback of our analytical results on economic theory, we present an overview how behavioral economics, cognitive economics and neuroeconomics should be developed in future with considering the implications of the food crisis's analysis.
