Since the seminal contribution of Jackson & Wolinsky 1996 [A Strategic Model of Social and Economic Networks, JET 71 …, 44-74] it has been widely acknowledged that the formation of social networks exhibits a general conflict between … general results that relate situations of positive externalities with stable networks that cannot be too dense in a well …

The best shot game applied to networks is a discrete model of many processes of contribution to local public goods. It …
