Description

As published on SAM.gov.

The National Security Economic Theory (NASCENT) program aims to establish a principled theoretical foundation for geoeconomics, enabling evidence-based economic statecraft and defining a rigorous scholarly field of quantitative geoeconomics. The program seeks to achieve the following objectives:
- Test the technical hypothesis that economic mechanism design, computer science formal methods, and experimental economics can be combined to construct a robust scientific framework for geoeconomics
- Prevent strategic surprise by building the methodologies and tools necessary to both anticipate and mitigate unintended consequences of economic statecraft.
