He is the Goldwin Smith Professor of Economics at Cornell University, where he has taught since 1972 and where he currently holds a joint appointment in the department of economics and the Johnson Graduate School of Management.

For the past several years, his research has focused on rivalry and cooperation in economic and social behaviour.
