Title A Game Theory Application of the Rational Actor Model to the Russo-Georgian War (August 2008)
Summary In this thesis, I analyze the Russo-Georgian War that took place in August 2008. Specifically, I make a Game Theory application of the Rational Actor Model to this concrete instance to answer the puzzle if the actions and decisions taken by the players of this game were rational. I hypothesize that the actors of the Russo-Georgian War were rational and introduce four game theoretical matrices, which I tend to refute or corroborate the latter.
