Negotiating a Stable Government: An Application of Bargaining Theory to a Coalition Formation Model
In this paper, we apply bargaining theory to a certain model of coalition formation. The notions of a feasible government and a stable government are central in the model considered. By a government, we mean a pair consisting of a majority coalition and a policy supported by this coalition. The aim of this paper is to establish which stable government should be created if more than one stable g...
متن کاملEfficiency in Negotiation: Complexity and Costly Bargaining∗
Even with complete information, two-person bargaining can generate a large number of equilibria, involving disagreements and inefficiencies, in (i) negotiation games where disagreement payoffs are endogenously determined (Busch and Wen [4]) and (ii) costly bargaining games where there are transaction/participation costs (Anderlini and Felli [2]). We show that when the players have (at the margi...
متن کاملCoase theorem, complexity and transaction costs
This paper, by introducing complexity considerations, provides a dynamic foundation for the Coase Theorem and highlights the role of transaction costs in generating inefficient outcomes in bargaining/negotiation. We show that, when the players have a preference for less complex strategies, the Coase Theorem is valid in negotiation models with repeated surplus and endogenous disagreement payoffs...
متن کاملCoalition Formation
This chapter surveys a sizable and growing literature on coalition formation. We refer to theories in which one or more groups of agents (“coalitions”) deliberately get together to jointly determine withingroup actions, while interacting noncooperatively across groups. The chapter describes a variety of solution concepts, using an umbrella model that adopts an explicit real-time approach. Playe...
متن کاملThe Benefits of Transaction Cost Economics: The Beginning of a New Direction
In this conceptual paper, we argue that the organizational focus on transaction costs needs to be balanced by an attention to transaction benefits, both at the individual and organizational levels. To the transaction characteristics suggested by transaction costs economics, we add four additional ones likely to foster transaction benefits: intensity of knowledge, segmentation of knowledge, disp...
