Dr Miguel Fonseca joined the Department of Economics in 2007 from Columbia University, where he had spent the previous two years as a post-doctoral researcher.

In particular, he conducted field experiments to study the ability of market mechanisms to coordinate investment decisions when there is uncertainty about the availability of water. Prior to that, he studied for his PhD at Royal Holloway, University of London, and his thesis focused on endogenous leadership formation in markets. Dr Fonseca’s current research interests are on tacit and explicit collusion and social identity and its effect on public good provision and bargaining and has obtained research support from the ESRC, the British Academy and the Nuffield Foundation.
