Workshop on Endogenous Institutions in Social Dilemmas
The Copenhagen Workshop on Endogenous Institutions in Social Dilemmas gathers a group of leading researchers in the field of experimental work on the formation and effects of institutions in social dilemmas. We will discuss, among other things, how efficient institutions emerge and are sustained, and whether the mode of implementing institutions (e.g. by voting or by external force) affects how well the institutions perform.
Keynote speakers are Louis Putterman from Brown University and Arno Riedl from Maastricht University.
