I am a Professor of Economics at the Department of Economics at Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU Vienna) and Editor-in-Chief of the journal Games. I am mainly interested in the foundations of social behaviors, like cooperation, trust, or deterrence. Consequently, my research focus is on game theory, mainly in its flavors non-cooperative and evolutionary, with traces of behavioral and experimental game theory. Here you can find links to my CV, my current teaching, my publications, and some extra information about me.

I am also president of the “Gesellschaft für kritisches Denken”, the Vienna Skeptics Society, trying to promote science and reason also when I’m out of office.

On X (formerly Twitter) I am known as @VARulle. (Don’t ask…!)
