Notes

  1. A collection of formable coalitions is accessible if for every formable coalition \(E \ne \varnothing \), there exists \(i \in E\), such that \(E {\setminus } \{ i \}\) is formable as well.

  2. The cooperative nature of the human economy has been emphasised throughout history. I refer to, e.g., Plato (2007), Seabright (2010), Bowles and Gintis (2011), and Sun (2012) for empirical support of human sociality and the history of these ideas.
