Adaptation is omnipresent but people systematically fail to correctly anticipate the degree to which they adapt. This leads individuals to make inefficient intertemporal decisions. This paper concerns optimal income taxation to correct for such anticipation-biases in a framework where consumers...

Habits are an important cause of sluggish consumption adjustment in response to price shocks. This paper studies shifts within the consumption bundle under endogenous habit formation. I put forward a model with good-specific, or "deep", habits that cause persistence in good-specific consumption....

We consider a duopolistic market in which a green firm competes with a brown rival and both firms offer two vertically differentiated quality products. We study optimal non-linear contracts offered by the two firms when consumers: (i) are privately informed about their willingness to pay for...

This paper studies shifts in the consumption bundle when consumption is subject to habit formation, and consumers do not internalize this habit formation process. Habits are good-specific, or 'deep', and cause persistence in good-specific consumption. In addition, at the aggregate level, habits...
