Abstract = {Strategic games model the interaction between simultaneous
decisions of a group of agents. The starting point of strate-
gic games is a set of players (agents) having certain strategies
(decisions) and preferences on the game’s outcomes. In this
paper we do not assume the set of decisions and preferences
of agents to be given, but derive them from their mental at-
titudes. In particular, we introduce a rule-based architecture
for agents with beliefs and desires and explain how their de-
cisions and preferences can be derived. We specify groups
of such agents, define a mapping from their specification to
the specification of the game they play, and use some familiar
notions from game theory, such as Pareto efficiency and Nash
equilibrium, to characterize the interaction between their de-
cisions. We also discuss a reverse mapping from the specifi-
cation of games that a group of agent play to the specifications
of those agents. This mapping can be used to specify groups
of agents that can play a ceratin game.},
