Transnational cooperation : an issue-based approach
Peinhardt, ClintAuthor
Sandler, ToddContributor
This title presents an analysis of transnational cooperation or collective action that stresses basic concepts and intuition. Factors are identified that facilitate and/or inhibit such cooperation. Elementary game theory is used as a tool for illustrating ideas and discussion. Game theory shows that rational actors (for example, countries, firms, or individuals) must account for the responses of other rational actors. The book assumes no prior knowledge of game theory; all game-theoretic concepts and analyses are explained in detail to the reader.
