Abstract

This theoretical paper discusses re-appropriating social dilemmas research to inform service science research. Service science researchers wishing to encourage collaborative, inter-individual exchanges may want individuals to behave such that individuals are not motivated solely by their own economic self-interests, but ultimately pursue actions that benefit the overarching good of multiple groups.

Keywords: inter-organizational systems, knowledge-based systems, cooperation, participation
