This course provides an introduction to Mathematical Game Theory, which is the study of making choices based on mathematical calculations. It is designed for those who are interested in world politics and have heard of the "Prisoner's Dilemma". Participants will learn how to make decisions that affect small groups of people or entire countries, and explore the strategies that can be used to ensure cooperation and stability. The course does not require any special knowledge, but will use definitions and theorems from mathematical analysis and elements of probability theory. Through this course, participants will gain a better understanding of why people make certain choices, and how to make decisions that will benefit them in the long-term.
