This paper reviews the strategic trade literature in oligopolistic industries beginning with the Brander-Spencer (1984) model of duopolistic international rent-shifting. Issues of long run equilibrium, entry conditions, and empirical estimates of the size of oligopolistic rents in tradeable...

This paper extends the results of Jovanovic and Rosenthal (1988) on the existence of equilibrium in anonymous sequential games. They prove existence in the case where the aggregate distribution of agents' characteristics evolves nonstochastically -- the case of "no aggregate uncertainty". We...

In this paper, we re-examine various previous experimental studies of the Centipede Game in the literature. These experiments found that players rarely follow the subgame-perfect equilibrium strategies of the game, and various modifications to the game were proposed to explain the outcomes of...

This paper develops a model of strategic behaviour in continuous time games of complete information. This model bridges the gap between the differential formulation of a continuous time game and the procedure of taking limits with respect to discrete time games. The model admits a large class of...

This paper introduces a general framework for the discussion of renegotiation in repeated games, provides a new concept of "renegotiation proof" equilibrium, and shows how this model clarifies and unifies existing work in this area. The procedure involves restricting axiomatically the class of...

This paper develops a general repeated game model over arbitrary time domain (which includes continuous time behaviour). A player is committed at any point in time to history independent behaviour for a positive length of time. The length of time of commitment depends on the way the history...
