Third-degree price discrimination in oligopoly when markets are covered

Dertwinkel-Kalt, Markus; Wey, Christian - 2020

We analyze oligopolistic third-degree price discrimination relative to uniform pricing when markets are always covered. Pricing equilibria are critically determined by supply-side features such as the number of firms and their marginal cost differences. It follows that each firm's Lerner index...

Unionized oligopoly, trade liberalization and location choice

Lommerud, Kjell Erik; Meland, Froede; Sørgard, Lars - 2002

In a two-country reciprocal dumping model, with one country unionized, we analyze how wage setting and firm location are influenced by trade liberalization. We show that trade liberalization can induce FDI, which is at odds with conventional theoretical wisdom and cannot happen in a...

Preferential trade liberalization with endogenous cartel discipline : implications for welfare and optimal trade policies

Agnosteva, Delina; Syropoulos, Constantinos; Yotov, Yoto - 2020

We consider an international cartel whose members interact repeatedly in their own as well as in third-country segmented markets. Cartel discipline-an inverse measure of the degree of competition between firms-is endogenously determined by the cartel’s incentive compatibility constraint (ICC),...

Multimarket linkages, cartel discipline and trade costs

Agnosteva, Delina; Syropoulos, Constantinos; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2017

We build a model of tacit collusion between firms that operate in multiple markets to study the effects of trade costs. A key feature of the model is that cartel discipline is endogenous. Thus, markets that appear segmented are strategically linked via the incentive compatibility constraint....

Optimal pollution control in a mixed oligopoly with research spillovers

Haruna, Shoji; Goel, Rajeev K. - 2018

We study optimal pollution abatement under a mixed oligopoly game when firms engage in emissions-reducing R&D that is imperfectly appropriable. The regulator uses a tax to curb emissions. Results show that in a mixed oligopoly, the public firm has positive emissions reduction in equilibrium;...

Global talent flows

Pekkala Kerr, Sari; Kerr, William R.; Özden, Çağlar; … - 2016

The global distribution of talent is highly skewed and the resources available to countries to develop and utilize their best and brightest vary substantially. The migration of skilled workers across countries tilts the deck even further. Using newly available data, we first review the landscape...
