博弈论 : 矛盾冲突分析 = Game theory : analysis of conflict

The 2008 crash has left all the established economic doctrines - equilibrium models, real business cycles, disequilibria models - in disarray. Part of the problem is due to Smith’s "veil of ignorance": individuals unknowingly pursue society’s interest and, as a result, have no clue as to the macroeconomic effects of their actions: witness the Keynes and Leontief multipliers, the concept of value added, fiat money, Engel’s law and technical progress, to name but a few of the macrofoundations of microeconomics. A good viewpoint to take bearings anew lies in comparing the post-Great Depression institutions with those emerging from Thatcher and Reagan’s economic policies: deregulation, exogenous vs. endoge- nous money, shadow banking vs. Volcker’s Rule. Very simply, the banks, whose lending determined deposits after Roosevelt, and were a public service became private enterprises whose deposits determine lending. These underlay the great moderation preceding 2006, and the subsequent crash.

The Theory of Industrial Organization

A detailed review of the education sector in Australia as in the data provided by the 2006 edition of the OECD's annual publication, 'Education at a Glance' is presented. While the data has shown that in almost all OECD countries educational attainment levels are on the rise, with countries showing impressive gains in university qualifications, it also reveals that a large of share of young people still do not complete secondary school, which remains a baseline for successful entry into the labour market.

Monopoly Distortions in Durability and Multi-Dimensional Quality

. This paper shows that in a political economy with repeated elections governments that possess full commitment behave as if their commitment is limited. Two different endogenous versions of the ratchet effect obtain: If contracts of previous governments tie newly elected governments, governments are unable to resist renegotiation. If previous contracts do not bind new governments and taxation has a crowding–out effect, a ratchet effect occurs that is similar, but not identical to the standard ratchet effect that is due to intertemporal non–commitment. Social welfare may be higher in the latter case, when the governing party is allowed to use bonds.

Regulation in a political economy: explaining limited commitment and the ratchet effect

We analyze the two goals behind the European Bologna Process of increasing student mobility: enabling graduates to develop multi cultural skills and increasing the quality of universities. We isolate three effects: 1) a competition effect that raises quality; 2) a free rider effect that lowers quality; 3) a composition effect that influences the relative strengths of the two previous effects. The effects lead to a trade off between the two goals. Full mobility may be optimal, only when externalities are high. In this case, student mobility yields inef- ficiently high educational quality. For moderate externalities partial mobility is optimal and yields an inefficiently low quality of education.

The Bologna Process: How Student Mobility Affects Multi-Cultural Skills and Educational Quality

The paper by Ulrich Kamecke investigates whether more standard assumptions about the production technology lead to more straightforward conclusions about the desirability of R&D joint ventures Regrettably, the paper shows that this is not the case This comment argues that in oligopolistic markets it is natural to expect that a cost-benefit analysis of joint ventures is involved The analysis in such models boils down to a nontrivial trade-off between the internalization of
