Research

Dr Bose’s research interests lie in applied microeconomic theory and behavioural economics. His current work explores contest theory, conflict economics—with a particular focus on religious conflicts in India—and coordination games in behavioural economics. One of his papers develops a dynamic attacker–defender model in which appropriation in the first period shapes the defender’s capacity for retaliation in the second period, which, in turn, influences strategic behaviour in the first period.
