Identifying who engages in inter-group conflict – and if they do so why – may help to predict and potentially prevent …-group conflict. We derive a typology and measure of group-dependent social preferences from a social preference model. We gather …

This paper explores the role of conflict as a bargaining tool. It first presents a simple bargaining model with one …-sided incomplete information. Parties can choose the scope of the confrontation they may want to engage in: A limited conflict that … only introduces delay, or an absolute conflict that terminates the game. The outcomes of both types of confrontation are …

This paper studies bargaining and conflict under incomplete information, provides an overview and a critical account of … sequential bargaining that take confrontation as final. Conflict and inefficiencies are to be expected in these models whenever … parties have optimistic prospects on the outcome of the all-out conflict. After examining the causes and reasons for this …
