Game Theory in Application in Indigenous Strategy A Curriculum of Oromo Logic, Sovereign Modelling, and Experimental Economics By Temesgen Muleta-Erena Imprint: TC Press
This anthology models indigenous strategy not as folklore, but as infrastructure. Through ten modular essays, Temesgen Muleta-Erena applies game theory to Oromo rituals, parables, and traditional puzzle games-revealing a curriculum of civic calibration, reputational equilibrium, and epistemic restraint.
From Buna Qalaa as a reputational offering to Hibboo as a strategic puzzle, each essay treats culture as simulation. Rituals become algorithms. Silence becomes signal. Offerings become trust mechanisms. The volume draws on canonical frameworks-signalling games, repeated interactions, and behavioural diagnostics-while remaining sovereign in source and ceremonial in tone.
Two narrative essays expand the republic's diagnostic reach:
- The Two Sisters and Bulguu models reputational collapse through a Dracula-like figure who feeds not on blood, but on broken trust. It rehearses symbolic decay, civic vulnerability, and the cost of epistemic silence.
- The Goat vs. the Tiger Child reframes predator-prey logic through indigenous storytelling, revealing how posture, timing, and symbolic literacy determine survival and dignity.
Two ritual essays deepen the curriculum's ceremonial logic:
- Buna Lubbii, the coffee of diplomacy, explores the offering of raw, unroasted beans as a costly signal of trust. It models vulnerability as strategic currency-where the absence of fire becomes a rehearsal of epistemic exposure, and silence becomes a diplomatic move.
- Saddeqaa examines the ritual of almsgiving not as charity, but as reputational calibration. It frames giving as a strategic move in the trust economy-where timing, posture, and symbolic literacy determine civic equilibrium.
Additional essays explore indigenous game logic, symbolic restraint, and thermodynamic ethics-modelling how traditional Oromo practices encode strategic reasoning. From the calibration of silence to the choreography of offerings, each scroll rehearses civic infrastructure.
Designed for educators, stewards, and strategic readers, this book reframes indigenous knowledge as experimental economics. It affirms that rituals encode logic, silence signals readiness, and gameplay rehearses trust. The result is a republic of essays-each scroll inscribed with academic clarity and ancestral dignity.
This is not folklore. It is sovereign modelling. This is not charity. It is ceremonial economics. This is not silence. It is strategic readiness.
Each essay is a scroll. Each ritual is a signal. The republic begins here.
About the Author Temesgen Muleta-Erena is a sovereign publisher, modular essayist, and ceremonial infrastructure theorist. He holds a PhD from the University of West London and an MA in Economics from the University of East Anglia. His work blends game theory, thermodynamic modelling, and symbolic narrative to decode institutional collapse, civic resistance, and epistemic stewardship.
He is the author of multiple sovereign titles, including Institutional Entropy and the Thermodynamics of Governance, Experimental Microeconomics from Daily Life, Beyond the Sun, and The Time-Tested Republic. His publishing ethic is ceremonial and independent-each book is treated as a civic artifact, each essay as a scroll.
Temesgen's outreach spans libraries, bookshops, and archival platforms, with a focus on dignified distribution, cultural symbolism, and reader activation.

Descripción de la tienda
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
