About Mitesh Kataria
I'm a tenured Associate Professor (Docent) at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. I mainly work with applied welfare economics and data analysis related to market failures and policies. I'm intrested in many different aspets of collective action problems; anything from the ethical underpinnings of collective choices - to methodological issues of how to efficently designs and analyze preference data. I take interest in hedonic measures as well as preference satisfaction in the assessment of indiviudal welfare, together with various other measures of individual welfare.
