This paper aims to conduct an analysis of Ken Binmore's thinking on human coordination behavior and the evolution of such coordination towards a stable, efficient and fair social contract. The analysis focuses, first of all, on Binmore's investigation of the relationships that men establish in the game of life, using game theory as a tool for analysis and forecasting, to identify stable and therefore feasible social contracts; then it deals with his efficiency analysis, aimed at selecting, among the stable social contracts identified, the ones that are efficient; finally, it deepens Binmore's ethical and moral evaluations aimed at the selection of a fair social contract. The last part of the paper aims to apply Binmore's paradigm on a topical issue: the social condiction of women in Europe.
