博弈论在西方经济学的教科书中已是一门被广泛接纳的理论知识课程。

博弈论分为合作博弈和非合作博弈,本课程讲授的是非合作博弈。

博弈论之所以成为主流经济学的一个重要组成部分,是因为信息问题在经济学中变得越来越重要。

从非合作博弈理论来看,主体内容包括:完全信息静态博弈,完全信息动态博弈,不完全信息静态博弈和不完全信息动态博弈。

信息经济学是非对称信息博弈论在经济学中的应用,可以简单地理解为:给定一定的信息结构,什么是最优的契约安排。

信息的非对称性可以从两个角度划分:非对称信息发生的事件以及非对成信息发生的内容。

研究事前非对称信息博弈的模型称为逆向选择模型,研究事后非对称信息博弈的模型称为道德风险模型。

研究不可观测行动的模型称为隐藏行动模型,研究不可观测知识的模型称为隐藏知识模型(或隐藏信息模型)。

在委托人-代理人的框架下,信息经济学的主体内容包括:隐藏行动的道德风险模型,隐藏信息的道德风险模型,逆向选择模型,信号传递模型,信息甄别模型。
