DESCRIPTION:A change may be socially desirable\, but bringing about change
  requires costly action and enough people taking such action — creating 
 a classic collective action problem. We study whether access to similar in
 formation about the desirability of change helps people to mobilize for a 
 shared goal. Similar information allows people to coordinate better\, but 
 it can also exacerbate the free-riding problem. We propose a natural order
  of interdependence of information structures and show that more interdepe
 ndence helps (hurts) when bringing about change is hard (easy). We apply t
 his theory to several examples such as protests\, boycotts\, and reporting
  workplace misconduct.\nSpeakers:\nJoyee Deb (Yale SoM)
