Drawing and building on the existing literature, this Element
explores the interesting and challenging philosophical terrain
where issues regarding cooperation, commitment, and control
intersect. Section 1 discusses interpersonal and intrapersonal
Prisoner's Dilemma situations, and the possibility of a set of
unrestrained choices adding up in a way that is problematic
relative to the concerns of the choosers involved. Section 2
focuses on the role of precommitment devices in rational choice.
Section 3 considers the role of resoluteness in rational choice and
action. And Section 4 delves into some related complications
concerning the nature of actions and the nature of intentions.
