In this paper we measure experienced guilt in a prisoner's dilemma experiment with pre-play communication. We find that feelings of guilt only arise in the case of unilateral defection and that they are stronger when players have mutually agreed to cooperate. We also find that fining unilateral...

This survey captures the main contributions in the area described by the title that were published up to 1997. (Unfortunately, it does not capture all of them.) The variations that are the subject of this chapter are those axiomatically characterized solutions which are obtained by varying...

This paper develops a model of conflict resolution over scarce water in a trans-boundary river. In our model, we … along the river, they sequentially bargain over the surplus of water, or decide to engage in a military conflict with their … upstream neighbour. The probability of winning a military conflict is determined by a contest success function which depends on …

We use a novel experimental design to examine the role of reputational concerns in explaining conditional cooperation in social dilemmas. By using the strategy method in a repeated sequential prisoners' dilemma in which the probabilistic end is known, we can distinguish between strategically and...
