As another example, this post of mine explains a theory based on a game theoretic model (or “game”), that’s far more complex than the basic games like prisoner’s dilemma. It has 5 types of players, their utility is based on 4 different things, they need to make decisions about multiple things, they need to take future states into account, they have temporal discounting and diminishing returns—and all that gives something that makes lots of very good predictions about politics.
