An agent will be more willing to risk conflict if it does not have much to lose in case that the negotiation fails. In contrast, an a...

Section: Three key questions. The Zeuthen strategy answers three open questions that arise when using the monotonic concession protocol, namely: Which deal should be proposed at first? On any given round, who should concede? In case of a concession, how much should the agent concede? The answer to the first question is...
