A game-theoretical model of the landscape theory

In this paper we examine a game-theoretical generalization of the landscape theory introduced by Axelrod and Bennett (1993). their two-bloc setting each player ranks blocs on basis sum her individual evaluations members group. We extend Axelrod–Bennett allowing an arbitrary number expanding set possible deviations to include multi-country gradual deviations. show that Pareto optimal equilibrium which is immune profitable always exists. also indicate while stronger concept than Nash in pure strategies, it weaker strong equilibrium.
