Parra Valencia, J: Cooperation in Large Scale Social Dilemma

Social dilemmas are conflicts between individual rationality and general welfare. The Literature explains how to evaluate effectiveness of cooperation based on trust mechanism in small-scale social dilemmas, but how to evaluate effectiveness of cooperation mechanisms in large-scale situations remain unknown until this book. The authors ed a construct to test cooperation mechanisms used to promote in large-scale social dilemmas that involve resource depletion. The proposed construct integrates cooperation mechanisms like trust, perception of damage and cooperation as norm. Results suggest that the ed artifact explains how mechanisms promote cooperative behavior in large-scale social dilemmas that involve resource depletion. In these cases dynamic complexity affects cooperation. This book finally indicates how cooperation mechanisms can be effective to promote cooperation in the context of dynamic complexity in large-scale social resource situations.
