Rational Players and Cooperation

from Emma•ism · host Emma Søndergaard Jensen

In this episode, social contract theory is discussed. Rationality is evaluated with a moral light. Why do should we hypothetically consent to the social contract? What is so bad about the state of nature that we must cooperate? The choice of whether to cooperate or not has to do with maximization —either straight-forward or constrained. Those are two competing views on rationality as well.
