A model of coopetitive games and the Greek crisis

Carfì, David and Schilirò, Daniele (2011): A model of coopetitive games and the Greek crisis.

Abstract

In the present work we propose an original analytical model of coopetitive games. We try to apply this analytical model of coopetition - based on Game Theory and conceived at a macro level - to the Greek crisis, suggesting feasible solutions in a cooperative perspective for the divergent interests which drive the economic policies in the euro area.
