GAME THEORY APPLIED TO CUSTODY CONFLICTS
Abstract
This paper deals with the use of game theory in Family Law, especially in custody cases. It presents Game Theory and two of its modalities – zero-sum game and nonzero-sum game – and its uses in disputes concerning which parent shall be awarded custody. The intent is to draw a parallel between the attitude of parents disputing their child’s custody and game theory, as well as to present how to address these matters in order to achieve the intended outcome in accordance with the rule applicable in Brazilian Law, which is joint custody
