When good ends require dodgy means, what do people do? Our second keynote Roland Benabou (Princeton Economics) runs a real-stakes trolley plus 5 other ends-vs-means games. 20–44% pick non-consequentialist — but trolley choices predict *nothing* about the rest. Kantian/utilitarian isn't a trait.
Last day of BÆM 2026. We conclude with a workshop on "Fairness in the Economy." We again have a jam-packed program of great presentations:

Stay tuned for live coverage!
Next up: Ingvild Almas (UZH Department of Economics) on perceived *unfair* inequality in labor markets — with a particular focus on the influence of inequality perceptions and fairness preferences.
