Game theory has been very successful in shaping modern economic theory over the past fifty years. Yet, the solution concepts developed under the assumption of perfect rationality require a degree of cognitive sophistication on players part that need not be realistic. In this project, I wish to broaden the definitions of equilibrium concepts to take into account the cognitive limitations of players. Armed with these equilibrium concepts, I wish to revisit a number of classic economic applications of game theory and economics in the hope that the proposed approach enhances our economic understanding. I also wish to check whether the proposed concepts are confirmed experimentally. Specifically, the project will rely on three new solution concepts I have recently introduced: the limited foresight equilibrium (Jehiel, 1995) in which players are viewed as knowing only the evolution of moves over the next n periods, the analogy-based expectation equilibrium (Jehiel, 2005) in which players understand only the average behavioural strategy of their opponents over bundles of states, and the valuation equilibrium (Jehiel and Samet, 2007) in which players attach the same valuation to a bundle of moves (possibly corresponding to different decision nodes). In each case, I assume that players choose their strategy based on the simplest representation of their environment that is consistent with their partial understanding. And as in the standard rationality paradigm, I assume that the partial understanding of players as parameterized by their cognitive type is correct. The heart of the project is to show how these approaches can be used to shed new light on major subfields of economic theory such as mechanism design, the theory of reputation, the theory of incomplete contracts and the theory of speculative markets. I also wish to test experimentally the solution concepts so as to check their empirical validity.

The project aim is to unlock and develop the capacity and research potential at INCDIE ICPE-CA, in the field of renewable energy, mainly Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Technologies (thematic priority in the EC FP7), by developing a high quality and promising research centre for hydrogen and fuel cells (HyFCLab) at INCDIE ICPE-CA, as reference research entity both in Romania and EU’s convergence region. The applied strategy for HyFCLab development is based on an Action Plan, derived from the SWOT analysis and the present involved projects along INCDIE ICPE-CA, related to the field of hydrogen and fuel cell technology. The strategic plan demonstrates the total capability for unlocking and developing the research potential at INCDIE ICPE-CA, in the addressed topic, by the support activities in the present project. INCDIE ICPE-CA, by its HyFCLab is going to have an important participation in the European research cooperation and by its expertised contribution will participate to the improvement of the regional economic level and reinforcement of the the competitiveness in the European Research Area. In this idea, a major infusion of specialized equipments will be done, in correlation with activities for improvement of RDI human resources quality and expertise. The project has a special focus on the experienced research staff recruitment and specialists training by exchange of know-how and experience activities at trans-national level. Facilitating the knowledge transfer, at national, regional and international level, by organizing specialised workshops and conferences, is also under rigurous attention. Increasing the international visibility of INCDIE ICPE-CA and HyFCLab respectively is another issue of the project. This will be realised by focused dissemination activities of the obtained scientific results, short presentations of the project and its results toward public bodies, innovative SMEs and social environment, as well as publications in scientific journals.

The main objective of this project is to increase the research capacities of the National Institute of RD for Optoelectronics (INOE) by developing the remote sensing activities to stimulate its full research potential contributing to the realization of European Research Area as a ”common market for research”. Specific domain (as listed in FP7): This projects addresses to the 6th priority of FP7: Environment (including climate change), more specifically to 6.1 Climate change, pollution and risks, 6.3 Environmental Technologies and 6.4 Earth observation and assessment tools activities. The concept of this project is to put together i) domains of common interest ii) improved research human potential and iii) up-to-date research equipments in order to boost INOE’s participation to FP 7 calls for proposals, amongst its partners from EARLINET and AERONET research networks. The principle is to mobilize human and material resources of highest quality, to reinforce their S&T potential, to expose them to a more international environment and give them the opportunity to work side by side with well established research groups in EU. DELICE project would allow the Romanian Lidar Centre in INOE to make one step forward in its strategy to become a regional (E-SE of European Union) leader in hi-tech environmental research, in particular in laser remote sensing of atmosphere and oceans. The continuous and intense collaboration between the Romanian lidar centre and EU counterparts for the entire period of the project will contribute to the increase of visibility and trust, not only from strategic partners’ point of view but also from national authorities, economic actors and society’s point of view.

Upgrading the RTD capacity and capability of Laboratory of Bioinorganic Chemistry (LBIC), training of research staff, improvement of research management, scientific equipment as well as the quality of research for a bio-inspired solar energy utilization. Improvement of the potential of the LBIC to participate in FP7 projects by a better integration in the European Research Area. Molecular systems that mimic the photoconversion steps of photosynthesis have been synthesized using complex and costly sequences of chemical reactions. Yet, modular systems that avoid these difficulties by self-assembling into complete artificial photosynthetic systems remain largely unknown. The design and development of light-harvesting, photoconversion, and catalytic modules capable of self-ordering and self-assembling into an integrated functional unit will make it possible to realize an efficient artificial photosynthetic system for solar fuels production. Achieving the goal of producing a functional integrated artificial photosynthetic system for efficient solar fuels production requires: (1) developing innovative architectures for coupling light-harvesting, photoredox, and catalytic components; (2) understanding the relationships between electronic communication and the molecular interactions responsible for self-assembly; and (3) understanding and controlling the reactivity of hybrid molecular materials on many length scales. In order to achieve a new contribution, the deep knowledge in details of the already mentioned by this multidisciplinary variety of impact is needed. And this is the answer to the question “why this contribution requires a European (rather than a national or local) approach”. The acceptance of the BIOSOLENUTI will push our work-team to interact in a respectable and reciprocal way with other national or international research activities in this attracting research area.

The plastic processing industry faces many challenges, although the use of plastics grows with new opportunities and applications To take advantage, SMEs have to innovate and diversify their business offer. Clusters assist this process by joining technical centres to monitor technological development, and suppliers of equipment and materials to improve competitiveness. The plastic processing industry in the Valencian Region supplies to a large number of industries such as the toy, footwear and textile sectors who face the same issues; fierce competition forces these industries to invest heavily to develop new and innovative products and processes, compete on an international level and with more high-tech companies. The creation of a research driven cluster would enable dialogue between different actors, transfer good practice and common strategy development. Besides, the plastic processing industry requires little initial capital, is labour-intensive and is not tied to a particular location unlike the plastic production industry. It is an industry to develop and stabilise economies and create local jobs. The Valencia regional government has announced full support and willingness to coordinate the creation of the cluster. The objective of the project is to unite the main regional actors of the plastic processing industry to develop specific actions which will drive to the creation of a RTD-based cluster, to target and face the future challenges of the Valencian plastic processing industry. Specific objectives are: - To elaborate a regional RTD roadmap for the years 2008-2012 - To identify potential specific RTD projects, taking into account environmental aspects related to the reduction of CO2 emissions - To create the operational framework for the cluster - To guarantee its financial sustainability This will provide the starting point for a sustainable collaboration between the different actors of the plastic processing industry in the Valencian Region.

CITSEE is a comparative and contextualised study of the citizenship regimes of the seven successor states of the former Yugoslavia (SFRY) in their broader European context. It focuses on the relationship between how these regimes have developed after the disintegration of SFRY and the processes of re-integration occurring in the context of the enlargement of the European Union applied in the region. It makes use of the varied statuses under EU law of the SFRY successor states, of which only Slovenia is so far a Member State. The processes at the heart of the study include the effects of previous and prospective enlargements of the EU and the broader stabilisation and association processes. CITSEE uses methods which look at legal and institutional change in its broader political context and applies the broad approach of constitutional ethnography. It has national case studies and thematic case studies of key issues which have a transnational dimension, including the status of residents of the former SFRY Republics resident in other Republics at the moment of independence, dual and multiple nationality, the granting or denial of political rights for resident non-nationals and non-resident nationals, the status of minorities such as the Roma, gender issues arising in a citizenship context, and the impact of citizenship concepts on free movement and travel across borders. While CITSEE s objectives are not normative in nature, and are not intended to supply answers as to best or worst practices in relation to citizenship regimes, or to evaluate the impact of Europeanisation as negative or positive, none the less such an evaluative study is likely to be of interest not only to researchers, but also to NGOs and to policy-makers in the region and in the EU and other international institutions because it fills in many gaps in our current knowledge and provides improved evidence on the basis of which policies may be developed in the future.

Emotions influence social relations; consequently, they are socially relevant, subject to scrutiny, judgment, and normative intervention. The manifestation, perception and treatment of emotions are subject to social interventions and to the influence of cultural change. Emotions in the Classical world have been primarily studied in the light of their representation in literature and art. Such studies have provided important insights; yet, they are based on works primarily created in a few major urban centres, almost exclusively by educated men of a higher status. This project is based on an analysis of documentary sources (inscriptions and papyri, c. 800 BC-c. 500 AD). Although they provide abundant, diverse, and representative evidence, they have never been studied in connection with this subject. As compared to literature and art, these sources represent a wide range of social strata and age-classes, originate in both genders, and are widely disseminated over time and space. These sources will be analysed both diachronically (history of particular emotions) and synchronically (manifestations of emotions in defined historical contexts). Selected literary sources and archaeological material will also be taken into consideration. The project pursues the following objectives: to contribute to a more reliable, nuanced, and comprehensive history of emotions in the Greek world; to increase awareness of the importance of emotions in Classical studies; to contribute to the transdisciplinary study of emotions through the presentation of paradigms from Classical antiquity; to enhance the dialogue between historical, social, and natural sciences; and to make documentary sources accessible to scholars working on the history of emotions and, more generally, on the history of mentality.
