We introduce a noncooperative multilateral bargaining model for a network-restricted environment, in which players can … communicate only with their neighbors. Each player strategically chooses the bargaining partners among the neighbors to buy out … their communication links with upfront transfers. The main theorem characterizes a condition on network structures for …

We analyze a model of strategic network formation prior to a Manea (2011) bargaining game: ex-ante homogeneous players … form costly undirected links anticipating expected equilibrium payoffs from the subsequent network bargaining. Assuming … are not even singularly pairwise stable. As an important implication, this reveals the diversity of possible bargaining …

substitutability and cross side complementarity. Given this preference domain I analyze the interplay between properties of the network … stable network, and (v) the existence of an efficient and individually stable network. These equivalences also provide a …

We consider a standard coalitional bargaining game where once a coalition forms it exits as in Okada (2011), however … bargaining solution is the unique stationary subgameperfect equilibrium. …

Specifically, actions are either strategic substitutes or strategic … complements, and participants have either complete or incomplete information about the structure of a random network.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the usefulness of non-cooperative bargaining theory for the analysis of … multilateral, multiple issues, non-cooperative bargaining model of water allocation in the Piave River Basin, in the North East of … problem and conduct comparative static analyses to assess sources of bargaining power. Finally, we explore the implications of …
