讲座简介:
The Prisoner’s Dilemma is a famous puzzle in decision theory/rational choice theory. In this lecture I provide a philosophical introduction to the topic of rational choice, and describe the connection that the prisoner’s dilemma has to the contrast between individualism and collectivism. In addition, this talk examines a number of examples of situations similar to the prisoner’s dilemma that can be found on TV shows in America and the United Kingdom.
