Information Structure and Logical Design of Social Rules

摘要

Apart from purely theoretical approaches (mainly in micro-economics), there seem to be not a lot of studies which employ computational environment to examine/explain sociological/ethical process of building informal institution in a society, or statement like "people should behave moralistic-ally". In this study I introduce an "agent based model" and then present an idea to examine/explain the sociological/ethical processes and statements using it. I make a trial to set a situation in which the agents can be defined to be "moralistic", using the notion of games and information structure. Some meaningful results on the formalisation are shown.
