“…Ever since Max Weber's (1930) seminal analysis of the role of protestant ethics for capitalism, social science has argued that moral convictions affect economic outcomes. This paper confirms this hypothesis for the case of environmental policy design.…”

We argue that such resistance may be driven by a feeling of moral responsibility where citizens prefer to tackle environmental problems themselves, rather than delegating the task to others by means of a market mechanism. Using a laboratory experiment that isolates moral responsibility from alternative explanations, we show that moral responsibility induces participants to incur a sizable cost on themselves as well as on other participants. We discuss the implications of this finding for the design and implementation of environmental policies.

“…Bringing context back into social experimentation is particularly important for sociological research. Sociologists have long been interested in the consequences of context, or "culture," for social interaction and market behavior in particular (Durkheim, 1893;Polanyi, 1944;Weber, 1920). Since then, multi-level explanation of individual action has become a disciplinary hall mark (Coleman, 1990;Merton, 1949;Parsons, 1937).…”

We use Mechanical Turk's diverse participant pool to conduct online bargaining games in India and the US. First, we assess internal validity of crowdsourced experimentation through variation of stakes ($0, $1, $4, and $10) in the Ultimatum and Dictator Game. For cross-country equivalence we adjust the stakes following differences in purchasing power. Our marginal totals correspond closely to laboratory findings. Monetary incentives induce more selfish behavior but, in line with most laboratory findings, the particular size of a positive stake appears irrelevant. Second, by transporting a homogeneous decision situation into various living conditions crowdsourced experimentation permits identification of context effects on elicited behavior. We explore contextdependency using session-level variation in participants' geographical location, regional affluence, and local social capital. Across "virtual pools" behavior varies in the range of stake effects. We argue that quasi-experimental variation of the characteristics people bring to the experimental situation is the key potential of crowdsourced online designs.
