In a prisoner's dilemma experiment, we find an independent third … party vetoes not only punishment to the cooperators but punishment to the defectors as well. Compared with the case when the …

Endogenously chosen punishment institutions perform well in increasing contributions and long-term payoffs in social … dilemma situations.
