GPIS EYE ON D.C. Modeling Bounded Rationality at the World Bank by Sagar Rijal Last Although Washington D.C. is the center for applied public policy, every so often there is a lecture on pure economic theory for which the practical application is not even confirmed. Such was the case of Dr. Ariel Rubinstein’s lecture on “Directions in Modeling Bounded Rationality” at the World Bank on Thursday March 28. Dr. Kausaik Basu the Chief Economist of development economics group at the Bank, introduced Dr. Rubinstein as the foremost theoretician of game theory and advanced formal research on “bounded rationality” in the last twenty years. Dr. Rubenstein did nothing to diminish his reputation. His presentation was quite esoteric, formal and not exactly geared to a layperson. Dr. Basu’s claim that the work would influence policy and debate on the field regarding the use of behavioral economics and meaningful rationality did not seem to bear out. Instead, the takeaway might have been the deeper questions regarding the value of basic theoretical research and its application to public policy problems. All we can say is that what is rationality and how agents use rationality in their actions is contingent upon the rules of the game. Dr. Rubinstein presented his recent paper that he co-authored with Dr. Jacob Glazer, his colleague at Tel Aviv University, Israel. The premise of the highly technical and formal paper is that the rationality principle that undergirds much of economic theory is highly contingent so that agents who are knowledgeable or astute can play the game by learning how to change their true choices based on the rules of the game. The game as presented is a persuasion or selection situation, a variation of the leader-follower game, which the authors call the listener-speaker game. In this game the listener presents her profile of information to which the speaker offers a matrix of conditions with which to judge the listener’s profile. Upon listening to the conditions the listener has to respond. The implication of the model is that “boundedly rational” agents might respond to the speaker’s conditions by telling the truth or lying. What is the “practical implication” of Dr. Rubinstein research presentation? After presenting his model and the implications of the model, even the author was non-committal of the practical implication of this or any other theoretical model. He insisted that as an economic theorist who tries to replicate a slice of reality into his highly stylized models, he is way of making grand pronouncements or sweeping conclusions. As a way of example, Dr. Rubinstein jokingly warned that no one should ask a game theorist if Israel should attack Iran. For game theorists who work in IR, such questions might be the ultimate application. Because the forum for the lecture was the World Bank and not an academic conference, the question of application was paramount. How do pure theoretical research benefit the policy and practice of economics, especially developmental economics? Again Dr. Rubenstein was dismissive of such concerns suggesting that these are highly formalized models, which approximate reality but cannot replicate it. As such these models would be meaningless or contradictory if the “rules or procedures” of the game is tweaked to fit a different context. Yet, in his closing remarks, Dr. Basu, being the chief economist of the Bank, tried to defend formal models and their application to practical questions and suggested it was up to the researchers working in practical projects to find useful applications of formal model, such as the one presented by Dr. Rubinstein. Sagar Rijal, ABD, is spending the final semester of his graduate assistantship doing research for his dissertation in Washington, D.C. Every week he will attend meetings, seminars, or presentations at think tanks and develop a column for the Bulletin community. He can be reached at srijal@odu.edu.

Title VIII Funding for continuing the JSTS is no longer available from the State Department; this year will mark the last year of the Junior Scholars’ Training Seminar. PhD students at any stage of their dissertations may apply for this year’s meeting, August 16-19 in Maryland at Aspen Wye River Conference Center. The deadline for applications is April 15, to be sent to European.Studies@wilsoncenter.org. Eligibility criteria, including an application form, can be found on the following website: http://www.wilsoncenter.org/opportunity/east-european-studies-junior-scholars-training-seminar The applicants selected will be convening with a set of senior scholars also selected to reflect their areas of concentration. Having attended all but one of the previous 25 gatherings, I am looking forward to chairing this last JSTS myself, still a Senior Scholar at the Wilson Center and since January Professor Emeritus at Maryland. As many alumni have told us over the years, the connections made at the JSTS, junior and senior, have proved valuable and also enduring. So, spread the word about this last chance.

Summer Programs ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research Welcome to the ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research! Founded in 1963, the ICPSR Summer Program is recognized throughout the world as the preeminent forum for basic and advanced training in the methodologies and technologies of social science research. We serve a diverse multidisciplinary and international constituency. Our general instructional philosophy emphasizes the integration of methodological strategies with the theoretical and practical concerns that arise in research on substantive social issues. The ICPSR Summer Program also creates a unique and supportive social environment that facilitates professional networking and encourages the exchange of ideas about the theory and practice of social science research. Thank you for your interest in the ICPSR Summer Program. 2013 marks our Fiftieth Anniversary, so this would be a great year to join us and participate in the Program. I hope to see you here in Ann Arbor or at one of our other locations this summer! Since its inception, the Consortium has offered the ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research as a complement to its data services. The Summer Program provides a comprehensive, integrated program of studies in research design, statistics, data analysis, and social science methodology. Its instructional environment stresses integration of methods of quantitative analysis within a broader context of substantive social research. Instruction is grounded in interactive, participatory data-analysis utilizing high-end, networked microcomputers. Because of the range of methodological instruction, the opportunity for intensive study, and the quality of instruction and supporting facilities, the Summer Program has become internationally recognized as a preeminent forum for basic and advanced training in the methodologies and technologies of social science research and instruction. The Summer Training Program schedule is partitioned into two four-week sessions, with instruction organized in lecture, seminar, and workshop formats. In addition, the curriculum includes special workshops that provide participants with opportunities to examine the impact of various methodologies on specific substantive issues. Research scholars who have made important contributions to the development of social methodology present informal lectures focusing on their most recent research interests. Finally, workshops that address the practical objectives of providing technical support for computing specialists and data librarians are also offered. Participants in each year’s Summer Program generally represent about 25 different departments and disciplines from over 200 colleges, universities, and organizations around the world. While sociology, psychology, and political science continue to be represented by the largest number of participants, the increasing number of individuals from across the social and behavioral sciences illustrates the breadth of interest in and impact of the Program.

Belgrade Security Forum 2013 Transformation of State and Professional Practices in International Security 19-21 September, Hyatt Regency Hotel, Belgrade, Serbia

T he organizers of the Belgrade Security Forum have the pleasure of inviting scholars and re-

searchers to submit their proposal papers for the third Belgrade Security Forum (BSF) to be held on 19-21 September 2013. The Forum is the biggest international security Deadline for conference in SouthApplication: east Europe which May 1, 2013 gathers several hundred top level policy and decision makers, NGO leaders, experts, academics and journalists each year. The Belgrade Security Forum is a unified event divided into two portions: an academic event which takes place on the first day, and a policy segment encompassing the following two days. All accepted papers will be presented during the academic event (September 19) of the Forum. The topic of this year’s academic event is Transformation of State and Professional Practices in International Security. The field of international security has undergone a tremendous change during the past two decades. Although the traditional threat of interstate war has not been eliminated, new issues have emerged on the international peace and security agenda such as human rights, cyber security or climate change. The state is still the key international security actor, but it is no longer “the only show in town�. Non-state actors such as international organizations, multinational corporations, NGOs or private security companies play increasingly important roles in the field of international security. Technology is advancing at the staggering pace, progressively shortening the periods needed for the invention of new game changers. The state is not withering away but rather adapts to the new environment through engaging in new forms of governance. As a result, the practice of international security is undergoing deep transformation. For more information, visit: http://www.belgradeforum.org/
