Growth versus development from Schumpeter to Georgescu-Roegen
Alcouffe, Alain; Ferrari, Sylvie - HAL - 2008
Since the early 1750's economists have elaborate two approaches in order to deal with economic history: a stage theory and a theory of continuing, quantitative growth. J. Schumpeter argued forcibly in favour of the development approach while N. Georgescu-Roegen endorsed the Schumpeterian...

European competition policy modernization : from notifications to legal exception
Loss, Frédéric; Malavolti, Estelle; Vergé, Thibaud; … - HAL - 2008
Council Regulation (EC) 1/2003 came into force in May 2004 and replaced the mandatory notification of agreements by a regime of ex post monitoring. This paper shows that ex post monitoring is the optimal audit regime when the competition authority's probability of error is low. On the other...

Bankruptcy Risk, Product Market Competition and Horizontal Mergers
Franck, Bernard; Pape, Nicolas Le - HAL - 2010
We consider an oligopolistic industry including leveraged firms and unleveraged ones where firms are engaged in a sequential decision-making process. At the first stage of the game, a firm and her bank, considering the demand uncertainty and the distribution probability of the shock, evaluate a...

Economic Rationales of Exclusive Dealing ; Empirical Evidence from the French Distribution Networks
Fadairo, Muriel; Yu, Jianyu - HAL - 2014
This paper investigates the rationales of exclusive dealing (ED), which is one of the most common forms of vertical restraint and attracts intense policy debates in anti-trust regulations. Based on a survey of the theoretical literature, we derive several hypotheses relative to the anti- and...

Rationalizability and Efficiency in an Asymmetric Cournot Oligopoly
Desgranges, Gabriel; Gauthier, Stéphane - HAL - 2014
We study rationalizable solutions in a linear asymmetric Cournot oligopoly. We show that symmetry across firms favors multiplicity of rationalizable solutions: A merger (implying a greater asymmetry across firms) makes out-of-equilibrium behavior less likely and should dampen &lquo;coordination&rquo;...

Assessing and ordering investments in polluting fossil-fueled and zero-carbon capital
Lecuyer, Oskar; Vogt-Schilb, Adrien - HAL - 2013
Climate change mitigation requires to replace preexisting carbon-intensive capital with different types of cleaner capital. Coal power and inefficient thermal engines may be phased out by gas power and efficient thermal engines or by renewable power and electric vehicles. We derive the optimal...
