A Positive Framework to Analyze Sovereign Bail-outs within the EMU

Fahrholz, Christian; Wójcik, Cezary - 2011

We propose a positive formal framework for analyzing sovereign bail-outs in the context of the European Monetary Union (EMU) with a view to making policy recommendations regarding improvements to the EMU institutional architecture. We build our analysis on a political economic game-theoretic...

Evolution and Refinement with Endogenous Mistake Probabilities

van Damme, Eric; Weibull, Jörgen W. - 1999

Bergin and Lipman (1996) show that the refinement effect from the random mutations in the adaptive population dynamics in Kandori, Mailath and rob (1993) and Young (1993) is due to restrictions on how these mutation rates vary across population states. We here model mutation rates as...

Evolution with Mutations Driven by Control Costs

Weibull, Jörgen W.; van Damme, Eric - 1998

Net-Loss Reciprocation and the Context Dependency of Economic Choices

König, Clemens - 2013

This paper proposes a novel explanation for the context dependency of individual choices in two-player games. Context dependency refers to the well-established phenomenon that a player, when choosing from a given opportunity set created by the other player’s strategy, chooses differently in...

Neutrally Stable Outcomes in Cheap Talk Games

Banerjee, Abhijit; Weibull, Jörgen W. - 1996

This paper examines equilibrium and stability in symmetric two-player cheap-talk games. In particular, we characterize the set of neutrally stable outcomes in finite cheap-talk 2 x 2 coordination games. This set is finite and functionally independent of risk-dominance relations. As the number of...

The right of withdrawal in the treaty of Lison: A game theoretic reflection on different decision processes in the EU

Lechner, Susanne; Ohr, Renate - 2008

The ways of decision making within the EU have significantly changed in the last decades: the rule of unanimity has been more and more substituted by majority voting in order to speed up decision-making processes in a Union of 27 heterogeneous member states. A third possibility is now offered by...

The bail-out! Positive political economics of greek-type crises in the EMU

Fahrholz, Christian; Wójcik, Cezary - 2010

The Greek bail-out was highly controversial. An oft-heard assessment is that i) the bail-out was a mistake, ii) the political haggling over it was irrational and iii) the bail-out will create a moral hazard problem. Contrary to this view, our analysis suggests that, given EMU's present...
