Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Law
  • Microeconomics
  • Social science

James M. Walker mainly investigates Public good, Microeconomics, Public economics, Common-pool resource and Turnover. James M. Walker interconnects Incentive, Public finance and Strategic dominance in the investigation of issues within Public good. His studies deal with areas such as Argument and Appropriation as well as Microeconomics.

His Public economics research includes themes of Outcome and Free riding. His Common-pool resource research incorporates themes from Conceptual framework, Coordination game, Set and Law and economics. The Law and economics study combines topics in areas such as Empirical evidence and Tragedy of the commons.

His most cited work include:

  • Rules, Games, and Common-Pool Resources (2453 citations)
  • COVENANTS WITH AND WITHOUT A SWORD: SELF-GOVERNANCE IS POSSIBLE (1402 citations)
  • Group Size Effects in Public Goods Provision: The Voluntary Contributions Mechanism (806 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microeconomics, Public good, Public economics, Social dilemma and Common value auction. His study looks at the relationship between Microeconomics and topics such as Appropriation, which overlap with Common-pool resource. By researching both Public good and Turnover, James M. Walker produces research that crosses academic boundaries.

His Public economics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Institution and Public goods game. His research integrates issues of Tragedy of the commons and Stochastic game in his study of Social dilemma. His Common value auction research integrates issues from Bidding and Mathematical economics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microeconomics (44.19%)
  • Public good (37.98%)
  • Public economics (18.60%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Public good (37.98%)
  • Microeconomics (44.19%)
  • Punishment (7.75%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of study are Public good, Microeconomics, Punishment, Public economics and Externality. James M. Walker is interested in Public goods game, which is a branch of Public good. His Microeconomics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Probabilistic logic and Appropriation.

His Appropriation research incorporates elements of Value and Common-pool resource. The various areas that James M. Walker examines in his Punishment study include Law and economics and Sanctions. James M. Walker combines subjects such as Tragedy of the commons, Outcome, Endowment and Ultimatum game with his study of Law and economics.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Experimental Development of Sealed-Bid Auction Theory; Calibrating Controls for Risk Aversion (95 citations)
  • Resource Allocation Contests: Experimental Evidence (66 citations)
  • Provision versus Appropriation in Symmetric and Asymmetric Social Dilemmas (63 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Law
  • Microeconomics
  • Social science

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microeconomics, Public good, Appropriation, Social dilemma and Public economics. His study in the fields of Auction theory, Loss aversion and Game theory under the domain of Microeconomics overlaps with other disciplines such as Resource. His Public good research focuses on subjects like Value, which are linked to Vulnerability and Harm.

His work deals with themes such as Law and economics and Externality, which intersect with Appropriation. His Social dilemma study also includes

  • Probabilistic logic that connect with fields like Opportunity cost, Value and Repeated game,
  • Experimental economics, which have a strong connection to Tragedy of the commons, Outcome, Stochastic game, Ultimatum game and Marginal value. His Public economics research focuses on Damages and how it relates to Common-pool resource.
