to and not the complete schedule of the seminar. ***
Erasmus Seminar in Philosophy and Economics
This is a REVISED Autumn 1997 programme of the Erasmus Seminar in
Philosophy and Economics. One session has been added: Abu Rizvi will
give a paper on the evolution of evolutionary game theory on the 17th
of December.
The paper considers the emergence and rising popularity of evolutionary
game theory in economics (the upsurge beginning around 1990). The paper
asks why it has become popular, how this is related to problems with
rational-choice game theory (hence the title). It also considers what Rizvi
feels are the strenghts and weaknesses of this approach.
