The political economy of predation: manhunting and the economics of escape
‘The dark aspects of life (conflict, violence, predation, manhunt, enslavement, aggression) are studied by various
disciplines and research programs, including history, psychology, mathematical game theory, criminology, political philosophy, and economics. Mehrdad Vahabi’s book is unique, as he, a genuine interdisciplinary thinker, overviews the so far separated analyses and enriches them with important new ideas.’
János Kornai – Professor of Economics Emeritus, Harvard University, Connecticut and Corvinus University of Budapest
‘A fascinating and provocative analysis of predators and their prey. Mehrdad Vahabi’s book will stimulate the minds of all who have been intrigued by the political economy of coercion.’
