Empirical models of demand for - and, often, supply of - differentiated products are widely used in practice, typically employing parametric functional forms and distributions of consumer heterogeneity. We re view some recent work studying identification in a broad class of such models. This...

Empirical models of demand for-and, often, supply of-differentiated products are widely used in practice, typically employing parametric functional forms and distributions of consumer heterogeneity. We review some recent work studying identification in a broad class of such models. This work...

A recent literature considers the identification of heterogeneous demand and supply models via "quasi-experimental'' variation, as from instrumental variables. In this paper we establish nonparametric identification of differentiated products demand when one has "micro data'' linking...
