Implementation of a solution can be thought of as a way to design power distribution in a society such that for each admissible preference profile, the set of equilibrium outcomes coincides with the set of outcomes that the solution would select for it. By using the notion of a rights structure...

Rotation programs are widely used in societies. Some examples are job rotations, rotation schemes in the management of common-pool resources, and rotation procedures in fair division problems. We study rotation programs via the implementation of Pareto efficient social choice rules under...

We incorporate the extended version of Nash bargaining proposed by Vartiainen (2007) in a standard labour search and matching model to endogenously determine the outside option of workers along with their wages. We find that the optimal outside option of a worker under this framework is zero and...

A social choice correspondence (SCC) F is implementable in rationalizable strategies provided that there exists a mechanism such that for each state θ, the support of its set of rationalizable outcomes is equal to the socially desirable set F(θ). We find that r -monotonicity is a necessary...
