Naseem Taleb mathematician - probability theorist - risk analyst - claims that Game Theory cannot be applied to predict sociological outcomes. Taleb called it the 'Ludic' fallacy. Using Bayesian (incomplete) probability analysis and evolutionary (Axelrod ) game theory "tit for tat " co-operative behaviour ( and Festinger cognitive dissonance and confirmation bias ) I claim that Taleb is dangerously wrong. And that defection ( as the dominant strategy of the self-absorbed coward) will result in a sufficient destruction of social capital and unity to facilitate the complete failure of democracy. Tell me I'm wrong and why please please please ?
