The past few decades, however, witnessed a dramatic change in the way the problem has been approached. The mathematical core of the field is now steadily coupled with empirical and computational methods and techniques. As a result, current models move towards increasingly more acc urate predictive capabilities. Unfortunately, h owever, the problem can hardly said to be solved, as we all witnessed in recent years. Yet there is a tangible feeling that the present situation is f avourable to the development of new, groundbreakin g ideas, which will perhaps give the discipline it s most significant turn in decades. The purpose of this workshop is to bring leading scholars and pr actitioners to share their view and vision on the current trends in rational decision theory, with a particular emphasis on its application to economi cs and finan>e.
