Game Theory as an Instrument for the Analysis of International Relations
نویسنده
چکیده
The object of this paper is to demonstrate the possibilities and limitations of gametheory as an instrument for the study of international relations. The approach to be useddescribes elementary game theoretic models as an integral part of international relations,rather than as examples of the mathematics of game theory. The paper is addressed totheoreticians and practitioners of international relations not particularly versed in gametheory, rather than to those who are fluent in its mathematical language and intricacies.The presentation concludes with some general observations on the uses and limitations ofgame theory as an instrument for the study of international relations.立命館国際研究 14-2,October 2001
