Abstract

Several similar maxims, known as "Golden Rules" are found in the writings of moral philosophers and religious teachers. Though similar, these maxims appeal to di fferent principles; and do not always recommend the same actions nor lead to the same equilibrium outcome in interactive games. This paper examines some of these rules and explores the way that they may emerge as a result of biological or social evolution.
