There's actually plenty of work on incentives to cooperation in P2P
systems that can actually interest you. The keywords to look for in Google
Scholar are probably "p2p incentives", "p2p reputation".
The papers about the topic that I like most are: "Incentives build
robustness in BitTorrent" by Bram Cohen (P2PEcon 2003) and "Sybilproof
reputation mechanisms" by Alice Cheng and Eric Friedman (P2PEcon 2005).
I wrote my Ph.D. thesis on incentives to cooperation in P2P, and you might
be interested in the Background chapter:
