 A Big Thinker's Event - "Facing a Long and Uncertain Future" by Kenneth Arrow
When: Wednesday, January 28, 2009 - 11:00 Location: Santa Clara, CA Abstract
Many allocation decisions require costs today (or, at least, beginning today ) with benefits extending into the distant future, affecting lives not yet in existence. The leading example today is policy to meet anthropogenic climate change, but that problem is by no means unique. How do we think about the balancing of values? To some extent, the questions have to do with empirical regularities, but to a major extent, they depend on value judgments about our obligations to future generations. The decisions are further complicated by uncertainties about the future.
