Communication in multilateral bargaining with joint production

چکیده
We experimentally investigate the effect of pre-bargaining communication on productive incentives in a multilateral bargaining game with joint production under two conditions: observable and unobservable investments. In both conditions, fosters fair sharing is rarely used to pit individuals against each other. Proportional arises investments or without communication, leading high efficiency gains. Without investment observability, widely truthfully report call for equitable sharing, allowing substantial Since occurs after production, our results highlight novel indirect channel through which can enhance social dilemmas. Our contrast previous findings over an exogenous fund, where leads highly unequal outcomes, competitive messages, virtually no appeals fairness.

Communication in multilateral bargaining
One of the most robust phenomena in the experimental literature on multilateral bargaining is the failure of proposers to extract equilibrium rents. However, all previous experiments have overlooked the fact that outside the lab committee members are allowed to and do engage in sometimes intense communication processes prior to voting on a proposal. We conduct an experimental test of the Baron-...
متن کاملMultilateral bargaining with concession costs
This paper presents a new non-cooperative approach to multilateral bargaining. We consider a demand game with the following additional ingredients: (i) there is an exogenous deadline, by which bargaining has to end; (ii) prior to the deadline, players may sequentially change their demands as often as they like; (iii) changing one’s demand is costly, and this cost increases as the deadline gets ...
متن کاملMultilateral Bargaining in Networks
We introduce a noncooperative multilateral bargaining model for a network-restricted environment, in which players can communicate only with their neighbors. Each player can strategically choose the bargaining partners among the neighbors and buy their communication links with upfront transfers. We characterize a condition on network structures for efficient equilibria: An efficient stationary ...
متن کاملBargaining Order and Delays in Multilateral Bargaining with Asymmetric Sellers
In a multilateral bargaining problem with one buyer and two heterogeneous sellers owning perfectly complementary units, we find that there exists an equilibrium which leads to inefficient delays when the buyer negotiates with the higher-valuation seller first and where players are extremely impatient. We also find that the buyer prefers to negotiate with the lower-valuation seller first, except...
متن کاملMultilateral Bargaining and Downstream Competition
We examine multilateral bargaining in vertical supply relationships which involve an upstream manufacturer who sells through two competing retailers to end consumers. In these relationships the negotiations are inter-dependent and a bargaining externality may arise across the retailers. In addition, the timing by which the manufacturer negotiates with the retailers becomes important. The manufa...
