The many strands of social contract theory arising since Thomas Hobbes's Leviathan demonstrate to some that social contract theory rests merely on a common metaphor rather than a core idea. While celebrating the "versatility" and "interdisciplinary scope" of social contract theory, editors Heugens (organization theory and organizational economics, Utrecht U., the Netherlands), Oosterhout (Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus U., the Netherlands), and Vromen (philosophy of economics, Erasmus U.) most emphatically do not share that view, presenting these seven essays as a demonstration of social contract theory's enduring power and recent renaissance in the social sciences. Topics include an application of evolutionary game theory to the question of the stability of social organizations, insights about market transaction costs provided by the perspective of contract law, and "integrative social contracts theory" and business ethics.
