311705 Klausur: Mechanism Design (Microeconomics 2b) am 08.10.10 (Kl) (SoSe 2010)

Contents, comment

The content of the class is a part of game theory that is particularly
important and suitable for applications in economics ,social sciences
and beyond.

This is the twin pair of " mechanism design" and " implementation theory".

The basic problem is: A planner ( "designer" ) has to invent game rules ( " mechanism" ) such that a large class of pupulations of potential players, desribed by their preferences on certain social outcomes, when playing an equilibrium according to these rules automatically realize ( "implement") some prespecified desired ( depending on this group´s preferences) social state.

This topic is equally important in economics (welfare;contracts) and in management science ( principal -agent- relations) and
economics of law ( incentives;punishment rules).

A solid basis in intermediate microeconomis and in bachelor level
