Shared Mental Models: Insights and Perspectives on Ideologies and Institutions
本文是纪念Denzau和North关于共享心智模型经典论文的专题研讨会引言，并基于该模型提出修正的纳什均衡模型，用于理解从孤立思维转向系统视角的学习路径，对应对经济危机、金融崩溃和全球健康疫情有启示。
SUMMARY This article leads off a special symposium comprised of a select group of public choice economists and political scientists that assembled to reflect on the important contribution that Arthur T. Denzau and Douglass C. North’s seminal piece on Shared Mental Models (1993) has made over the last quarter of a century. Relatedly, we apply concepts from Denzau and North’s Shared Mental Models to suggest a modified model of the Nash equilibrium used in non‐cooperative game theory to help us operationalize the “learning path” by which we can move from “siloed” thinking to a wider “systems” view of organizations, our environment, and indeed, the world. Our model has implications for the way we respond to economic crises, financial meltdowns, and global health epidemics, such as the COVID‐19 pandemic.
