Colusión en un duopolio de Bertrand con rendimientos decrecientes y productos diferenciados

Contreras, Roberto; Georgantzis, Nikolaos; Ginés, Miguel - In: Estudios de Economía 35 (2008) 1, pp. 19-31

We study cartel stability in a differentiated price-setting duopoly with returns to scale. We show that a cartel may be equally stable in the presence of lower differentiation, provided that the decreasing returns parameter is high. In addition we demonstrate that for a given factor of discount,...

Lumpy countries, urbanization, and trade

Brakman, Steven; van Marrewijk, Charles - 2011

Lumpiness of production factors within a country might overturn the predictions for the structure of trade by the factor-abundance (HO) model. Trade patterns, as predicted by this model, can both be magnified or reversed by uneven concentration of production factors within a country. Cities are...

Wachstumstheoretische Perspektiven der Wirtschaftsintegration: Neuere Ansätze

Bretschger, Lucas - 2001

Die wirtschaftliche Integration verändert den Wachstumspfad der beteiligten Länder durch Skalen-, Faktorreallokations- und Faktorhandelseffekte. Während die oft stark betonten Skaleneffekte das Wachstum eindeutig fördern, können durch Handel ausgelöste Verschiebungen der sektoralen...

Managerial versus production wages: Offshoring, country size and endowments

Benz, Sebastian; Kohler, Wilhelm - 2011

We explore the role of trade in differentiated final goods as well ollshoring of tasks for inequality both within and between countries. We emphasize the distinction between managerial and production labor. Managerial labor is a fixed input while production labor is a variable input. Following...

Managerial versus production wages: Offshoring, country size and endowments

Benz, Sebastian; Kohler, Wilhelm - 2010

In this paper, we explore the role of trade in differentiated final goods as well offshoring of tasks for inequality both within and between countries. We emphasize the distinction between managerial and production labor. Production labor is assumed to be a variable input composed of tradable...

International Coordination of Quality Standards and Vertical Product Differentiation

Lutz, Stefan - 2003

I study the influence of minimum quality standards in a partial-equilibrium model of vertical product differentiation and trade in which duopolistic firms face quality-dependent costs and compete in quality and price in two segmented markets. Three alternative standard setting arrangements are...

Mutual Recognition of National Minimum Quality Standards may Support International Convergence

Lutz, Stefan - 2003

In a model of vertical product differentiation, duopolistic firms face qualitydependent costs and compete in quality and price in two segmented markets. Minimum quality standards, set according to the principle of Mutual Recognition, can be used to increase welfare. The results of the one-shot...

Bertrand and price-taking equilibria in markets with product differentiation

Coloma, Germán - 2008

In this paper we show that a homogeneous-product market with multiple Bertrand equilibria becomes a market with a single Bertrand equilibrium when we introduce a small degree of product differentiation. When differentiation tends to zero, that Bertrand equilibrium converges to the unique...
