------------

The second International Conference on *Reputation*: 'Society, Economy, Trust' follows the success of the first edition (http://2009.icore.name) as a point of convergence in the interdisciplinary study of reputation.

The study of reputation and gossip is paramount in many fields of the social sciences, for example organization science, policy-making, (e-)governance, cultural evolution, social dilemmas, socio-dynamics, and sociobiology. Interest in reputation is increasing in philosophy, psychology, social psychology, sociology, and cognitive science; formal models appear in game theoretical, mathematical, and physics journals; computational reputation systems are among the most studied subjects in multi-agent technology and social simulations.

Our objective is that of providing a common ground for all the interested disciplines to share techniques and ideas on a stage where the selection process approach is founded not on one specific method, and even less on established practices and rituals, but rather on an open-minded scientific approach to the the object of study.

This year, the  conference focuses on the foremost of Reputation's relative, trust, and their effects together on the economy, and on the society as a whole. What is the link between reputation and trust on one side, and social well-being, equality and happiness on the other? We invite contributions on reputation and trust, and how these come to affect the society of agents that use them, ranging from web reputation platforms to informal models of gossip. Trust and reputation as means to build social capital and to overcome inequality and misunderstandings are deeply needed from society just now.

Submission is in two steps: extended abstract first, followed by an open discussion phase, then full paper. See important dates above.

REVIEW CRITERIA

Papers should present novel ideas related to reputation, clearly motivated by problems from current practice or applied research. 
We expect claims to be substantiated by theoretical or formal analysis, experimental evaluations, comparative studies, and so on. Authors are also encouraged to submit application papers. Application papers are expected to address an indication of the real world relevance of the problem that is solved, including a description of the deployment domain, and some form of evaluation of performance, usability, or superiority to alternative approaches.
