Uniqueness and the Social Contract
Social contract theorists often take the decisions made by rational or reasonable individuals in certain choice situations as informing the features of the ideal social contract. Bruner will discuss some recent experimental work on decision-making in various choice situations, followed by a discussion on how theorizing about the social contract should proceed in light of these empirical results. (This talk draws on some joint work with Matthew Lindauer, Brooklyn College and ANU)
