Information acquisition and decision making in committees

Gerling, Kerstin; Grüner, Hans Peter; Kiel, Alexandra; … - 2003

This is a survey on the recent game theoretic literature on committee decision making. We consider theoretical work on the role of (i) strategic voting, (ii) costly information acquisition, (iii) conflicting interests, and (iv) communication in committees. Moreover, we review recent experimental...

Government deficits, wealth effects and the price level in an optimizing model

Annicchiarico, Barbara - 2003

This paper investigates the in inflationary effects of fscal policy in an optimizing general equilibrium monetary model with capital accumulation, exible prices and wealth effects. The model is calibrated to Euro Area quarterly data. Simulation results show that government defcits, high debt...

Implementing optimal control in cointegrated I(1) structural VAR models

Monti, Francesca V. - 2003

This paper examines the feasibility of implementing Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) Control in structural cointegrated VAR models and sheds some light on the two major problems generated by such implementation. The first aspect to be taken into account is the effect of the presence of unit roots...

Monetary and fiscal interactions in open economies

Lombardo, Giovanni; Sutherland, Alan - 2003

Optimal dynamic risk sharing when enforcement is a decision variable

Koeppl, Thorsten V. - 2003

Societies provide institutions that are costly to use, but able to enforce long-run relationships. We study the optimal decision problem of using self-governance for risk sharing or governance through enforcement provided by these institutions. Third-party enforcement is modelled as a costly...
