It is
the aim of this conference to
provide a forum for research on game theoretic pragmatics. Pragmatics
is
understood in a wide sense, including not only classical topics like
Gricean
pragmatics, speech act theory, rhetoric, and socio-linguistics, but
also e.g.
investigations into the role of rational behaviour in language change.
We
invite talks that further our theoretical understanding of the role of
preferences and decision making in language use, as well as empirical
investigations into
the validity of theoretical models.
