Biography:
Jae-Woo Kim is a PhD candidate. He has been interested in the ecology of business organizations and social movement organizations as well as global political economy since the earlier years. His recent research's focus is on cooperation and coordination in social dilemma games on social networks such as the evolution of tag-based cooperation and the dynamics of reputation-based indirect reciprocity. He is writing his doctoral dissertation, an agent-based model of parochial cooperation; the co-evolution of identity, solidarity, and networks, with Professor Robert Hanneman as the advisor. Some other computational models on the interplay of rationality and identity in workers protest and the co-evolution of opinion and networks are done. Moving from computer simulation, the next projects will be to test ideas and hypotheses from empirical data by using online experiments and computerized experiments. Furthermore, he has been recently studying game theoretical approaches to economic networks for future research since his stay in the Netherlands.
