Abstract
Summary: One of the main fields of application of game theory is the economics of imperfect competition. This article reviews the main lessons learned from the theory, particularly in relation to the struggle for the first move and the origins of co-operation. These analyses are then applied to forms of competition in the telecommunications sector, and to strategic choices between information highways and debt reduction.
