In st rategic interaction, where multiple agents pursue\ n personal objectives, conflict is bound to a rise, as the actions\n of the individual agen ts have an effect on the welfare of the\n oth ers. In such situations the need arises for the ex plicit\n regulation of individual and collect ive behaviour which has\n traditionally follo wed two alternative approaches, well-known in\n the economics literature: the spontaneous order approach, which\n studies how norms result f rom endogenous agreements among\n rational in dividuals, and the mechanism design approach, whic h\n studies how norms are exogenously designe d in order to reach\n desirable properties.\n
\nThe present workshop is motiv ated by the conviction that the\n two paradig ms to understand norms in strategic interaction ar e\n by no means incompatible and can be effec tively used together\n for regulative purpose s. The aim of the symposium is to gather\n re searchers looking at norms in strategic interactio n from\n different perspectives, i.e. philoso phy, computer science, game\n theory, logic, fostering discussion and interdisciplinary\n collaboration. Researchers will be given the oppor tunity of\n presenting their work in a stimul ating environment, without\n novelty constrai nts on their contribution.\n
