The main deviations from theory are: a) Subjects under-exploit their bargaining power by being more … asymmetries have on bargaining power, especially when the asymmetries relate to recognition probabilities. …

The bargaining model with stochastic order of proposing players is properly embedded in continuous time and it is … the Nash bargaining solution of a modified bargaining problem and the Maximum Theorem implies convergence to the Nash … bargaining solution when time between proposals vanishes. The model unifies alternating offers, one-sided offers and random …

This paper argues that the notion of focal points is important in understanding bargaining processes. Recent literature … confines a discussion of the usefulness of the notion to coordination problems and when bargaining experiments result in … equal split division and it re-interprets recent experimental evidence in bargaining games. Experimental economists should …

Transparent decision-making processes are widely regarded as a prerequisite for the working of a representative democracy. It facilitates accountability, and citizens may suspect that decisions, if taken behind closed doors, do not promote their interests. Why else the secrecy? We provide a...

Interest groups are introduced in a spatial model of electoral competition between two political parties. We show that, by coordinating voting behavior,these interest groups increase the winning set, which is defined as the set of policy platforms for the challenger that will defeat the...

Interest groups are introduced in a spatial model of electoral competition between two political parties. We show that the presence of these interest groups increases the winning set, which is the set of policy platforms for the challenger that will defeat the incumbent. Therefore interest...
