- This work emerged from an interdisciplinary project (EPSRC EP/K033042/1) involving economists and political scientists as well as computer scientists. It appears in a leading computational logic journal. It shows how to treat two different, well-know logics (substructural and conditional) in a uniform way. This allows for the transfer of methods between the two areas. For example, in one direction it shows that the conditional logic can be extended with a notion of hypothetical conjunction, while in the other direction it shows that formalized game-theoretic reasoning can also be done in substructural logic where the proof-theory is more developed.
