This document discusses tacit negotiations and social dilemmas. It begins by distinguishing between cooperative games, which involve explicit contracts and mutual understanding, and non-cooperative games, which feature tacit contracts and uncertainty about others' actions. It then examines the prisoner's dilemma, in which two individuals may choose to cooperate or defect, and how this relates to social dilemmas involving multiple stakeholders. Specific examples are provided, such as a price war between three cell phone companies in Egypt, to illustrate cooperative and non-cooperative strategies in different scenarios.

Mobinil, Vodafone & Etisalat Rating War
By nine years of controlling the market, Mobinil and
Vodafone got through a cooperative agreement that they
would settle the market in a level of around 40 pt per
min rate.
By the first of May 2007 a third negotiator came on the
table claiming for his slice of the pie which was Etisalat.
Etisalat came to the market with a Growth strategy that
is targeting the Market Share; so they adopted to go
through a price war against the other Market
Negotiators, which was Mobinil & Vodafone.
This non cooperative approach leaded to an enormous
change in the price level per min rating.
