Critical Game Theory Humanistic and Radical Alternatives to the Mainstream

Critical Game Theory Humanistic and Radical Alternatives to the Mainstream

The models in mainstream game theory generally assume that actors act according to a single consistent utility function. Empirical studies common sense and humanistic wisdom all suggest that that assumption is too simple. This book starts with an assumption that actors are controlled by diverse inconsistent forces and demonstrates that introducing this level of complexity allows for the creation of critical game theory models that can help to attain new insights into nature human nature human institutions and human behavior. The book begins with an evolutionary or Evo model in which the players have concerns for the other player as well as egoistic interests. Part I analyzes the Prisoner’s Dilemma using a literary or Lit model in which the players have entropic or Entro masochistic and sadistic drives as well as altruistic and egoistic ones. Part II suggests that the Lit model opens the door to a “where Entro is let Evo be” critical perspective on politics. Part III considers how core stories in mainstream game theory can be usefully supplemented and deepened by critical models and reflects on possible futures for critical game theory. The discussion of games and subgames includes poems as well as matrices in pursuit of a mode of presentation that respects the complex simultaneously humanistic and scientific qualities of critical game theory. The vision of critical game theory advanced in the book will be of significant interest to researchers in an array of theoretical and applied disciplines including but not limited to literature psychology political science economics computer science ethics business ethics law and law and economics. | Critical Game Theory Humanistic and Radical Alternatives to the Mainstream

Illuminating Errors New Essays on Knowledge from Non-Knowledge

Illuminating Errors New Essays on Knowledge from Non-Knowledge

This is the first collection of essays exclusively devoted to knowledge from non-knowledge and related issues. It features original contributions from some of the most prominent and up-and-coming scholars working in contemporary epistemology. There is a nascent literature in epistemology about the possibility of inferential knowledge based on premises that are for one reason or another not known. The essays in this book explore if and how epistemology can accommodate cases where knowledge is generated from something other than knowledge. Can reasoning from false beliefs generate knowledge? Can reasoning from unjustified beliefs generate knowledge? Can reasoning from gettiered beliefs generate knowledge? Can reasoning from propositions one does not even believe generate knowledge? The contributors to this book tackle these and other questions head-on. Together they advance the debate about knowledge from non-knowledge in novel and interesting directions. Illuminating Errors will be of interest to researchers and advanced students working in epistemology and philosophy of mind. | Illuminating Errors New Essays on Knowledge from Non-Knowledge
