Cooperation and between-group competition
Introducing competition between groups may induce cooperation to emerge in defection games despite considerable cost of cooperation. If the groups can confine themselves to a cooperative sector, either by providing incentives to raise the cooperation level in one group, or by providing disincentives so that the cooperation level in the other group gets lowered to match that of the first, maximu...
متن کاملWithin-Group Cooperation and Between-Group Competition in Contests∗
Olson’s analysis argues that the free-rider problem makes large groups less effective. In this paper, we challenge this view of group action with a very simple contest game that exhibits a bilateral interplay between intergroup interaction and within-group organization. In a static setting, because of the free-riding incentives, the larger group is disadvantaged in the competition with its riva...
متن کاملBetween-group competition, intra-group cooperation and relative performance
We report the results of a new public goods experiment with an intra-group cooperation dilemma and inter-group competition. In our design subjects receive information about their relative individual and group performance after each round with non-incentivized and then incentivized group competition. We found that, on average, individuals with low relative performance reduce their contributions ...

However, the costs of cooperation can be diminished or overcome when there is competitio...
متن کاملBetween-group competition elicits within-group cooperation in children

During between-group competitive interactions, more cohesive groups (i.e. groups formed by individuals who cooperate in group defence) should out-perform less cohesive groups, other factors being equal (e.g. group size). The cost/benefit...
