Gaming The System: Bio-Economics, Game Theory, & Fisheries Management, Richard A. Grisel Dec 2012

Gaming The System: Bio-Economics, Game Theory, & Fisheries Management, Richard A. Grisel

Richard A Grisel

This paper argues that game theory provides powerful, effective new tools to analyze externalities that occur in the context of strategic, multi-party, interactive decision-making. I will attempt to treat this as a non-technical paper and avoid the complex mathematics better left to economists and mathematicians.

This Article analyzes the theoretical underpinnings of the UCC’s category for general intangibles and shows how classification as a general intangible can and should comport with the legal substance of tax credits as a form of secured financing. Part I investigates the theory and nature that forms the basis of tax credits and their economic value, as well as provides some background and analysis of the UCC’s collateral category for general intangibles. Part II gives an overview of the relatively meager amount of case law on tax credit financing and explains how courts have struggled with this new concept. Part …
