The Logic of Group Conflict

by Russell Hardin ...

In a book that challenges the most widely held ideas of why individuals engage in collective conflict, Russell Hardin offers a timely, crucial explanation of group action in its most destructive forms. Contrary to those observers who attribute group violence to irrationality, primordial instinct, or complex psychology, Hardin uncovers a systematic exploitation of self-interest in the underpinnings ...

Liberalism, Constitutionalism, and Democracy

by Russell Hardin ...

In his ground-breaking book, the leading political philosopher Russell Hardin develops a new theory of liberal constitutional democracy.

Indeterminacy and Society

by Russell Hardin ...

In simple action theory, when people choose between courses of action, they know what the outcome will be. When an individual is making a choice "against nature," such as switching on a light, that assumption may hold true. But in strategic interaction outcomes, indeterminacy is pervasive and often intractable. Whether one is choosing for oneself or making a choice about a policy matter, it is ... Read more

How Do You Know?

The Economics of Ordinary Knowledge

by Russell Hardin ...

How do ordinary people come to know or believe what they do? We need an account of this process to help explain why people act as they do. You might think I am acting irrationally--against my interest or my purpose--until you realize that what you know and what I know differ significantly. My actions, given my knowledge, might make eminently good sense. Of course, this pushes our problem back one ... Read more
