Erasmus Seminar in Philosophy and Economics 
 
This is an ADDITION to the 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.
