Today's edition of "๐๐ papers you should know": a finite asymmetric information game in which *every* sequential equilibrium (in fact, every PBE) has a player convinced of a state and subsequently relinquishing that belief. Let's go through the example (changing language a bit).
Today's edition of "๐๐ papers you should know" is Amanda Friedenberg's @econometric.bsky.social paper, "Bargaining Under Strategic Uncertainty: The Role of Second-Order Optimism". It's a wonderful example of a paper that delivers new insights from studying an old game.
Paper worth reading: "The Optimality of Majority Rule" by Nina Bobkova.
It offers a new perspective on why simple majority-rule may be best: it not only aggregates information but it also motivates voters to learn about what really matters.
