One Hundred Years of Game Theory

Mark Voorneveld is a professor in the Department of Economics at the Stockholm School of Economics Jörgen W. Weibull is professor emeritus at the Stockholm School of Economics. He has taught game theory at many universities in the world. In his research he has made significant contributions to political economy, to the modelling of social norms and moral values, to evolutionary game theory, and to non-cooperative game theory. Tommy Andersson is a professor in the Department of Economics at Lund University. His research focuses on mechanism and market design. He is currently the President of the Society for Economic Design (2023-present) and a member of the Prize Committee for the Alfred Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences (2019 – present). Roger Myerson is a David L Pearson Professor of Global Conflict Studies in the Harris School of Public Policy at the University of Chicago. He has written about game theory, information economics, and comparative political institutions. In 2007, he was awarded the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for contributions to mechanism design theory, which analyzes rules for coordinating economic agents efficiently when they have different information and difficulty trusting each other. Jean-François Laslier is a Senior researcher at the CNRS and professor at the Paris School of Economics. His work interests include Games and Social Choice Theory, and Political Science. He does research on democracy, and in particular on voting rules and citizen's behavior. Rida Laraki is Director of the Moroccan Center for Game Theory at the University Mohammed VI Polytechnique (UM6P), Rabat, Morocco. He is a multi-disciplinary researcher whose work includes stochastic games, voting design, economic theory, optimization, and multi-agent learning. He is the co-author of Majority Judgment: Measuring, Ranking, and Electing (2011). Yukio Koriyama is Full Professor of Economics at the Ecole Polytechnique in France. His research interests include Game Theory and its application to Political Economy.
