Ferguson presents a comprehensive political economy text aimed at advanced undergraduates in economics and graduate students in the social sciences. The text utilizes collective action as a unifying concept, arguing that collective-action problems lie at the foundation of market success, market failure, economic development, and the motivations for policy. Ferguson draws on information economics, social preference theory, cognition theory, institutional economics, as well as political and policy theory to develop this approach. The text uses classical, evolutionary, and epistemic game theory, along with basic social network analysis, as modeling frameworks. These models effectively bind the ideas presented, generating a coherent theoretic approach to political economy that stresses sometimes overlooked implications.Game theoryEconomicsMathematical modelsElectronic books.Game theory.EconomicsMathematical models.330.01/5193QM 000rvkFerguson William D.1953-1045092MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465064303321Collective action and exchange2471077UNINA03035nam 22006015 450 99655857060331620231004063343.03-031-44053-610.1007/978-3-031-44053-3(MiAaPQ)EBC30771298(CKB)28464911200041(Au-PeEL)EBL30771298(DE-He213)978-3-031-44053-3(PPN)272915041(EXLCZ)992846491120004120231004d2023 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierPractical Applications of Stochastic Modelling[electronic resource] 11th International Workshop, PASM 2022, Alicante, Spain, September 23, 2022, Revised Selected Papers /edited by Matthew Forshaw, Katja Gilly, William Knottenbelt, Nigel Thomas1st ed. 2023.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Springer,2023.1 online resource (140 pages)Communications in Computer and Information Science,1865-0937 ;17869783031440526 Performance modelling of attack graphs -- Towards Calculating the Resilience of a Urban Transport Network under Attack -- Analysis of the Battery Level in Complex Wireless Sensor Networks using a Two Time Scales Second Order Fluid Model -- To Confine or not to Confine: A Mean Field Game Analysis of the End of an Epidemic -- Data Center Organization and Optimization Strategy as a k-ary n-cube Topology -- Towards energy-aware management of shared printers -- Modelling Performance and Fairness of Frame Bursting in IEEE 802.11n using PEPA.This book constitutes the referred proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Practical Applications of Stochastic Modelling, PASM 2022, was held in Alicante, Spain, in September 2022.
