Emergence of Peace due to Neutral Attitude Toward Others

  • Chapter
Advancing Social Simulation: The First World Congress

Abstract

As in Hobbes’ state, “war of all against all”, a society consisting of players who can freely choose to attack or not to attack the others changes into a battling society inevitably. In order to recover a social order, (2005) proposed “friend selection strategies” (FSSs), one of which requires a player to regard the other who didn’t attack himself or his “friends” as a “friend” (they call it us-TFT). Nevertheless, they assume a prior a “neutral” player toward other’s actions, who has not so strict or not so generous attitude toward other’s actions. So, we carried out evolutional simulations regarding the attitude and investigated the robustness of us-TFT strategy. As a result, it was found out that the neutral us-TFT players emerge and they establish a peaceful society.
