Do Guaranteed-Low-Price Policies Guarantee High Prices, And Can Antitrust Rise To The Challenge?, Aaron S. Edlin Nov 1997

Do Guaranteed-Low-Price Policies Guarantee High Prices, And Can Antitrust Rise To The Challenge?, Aaron S. Edlin

Aaron Edlin

Price-matching policies can be highly anticompetitive. They allow firms to raise their prices above competition levels by discriminating in price between informed and uninformed customers. The resulting high prices can persist even when new firms enter the industry, a fact that gives price matching the potential to be much more socially costly than an ordinary monopoly or cartel. At the same time, widespread entry implies that the agreement among sellers that is typical of a Sherman Act price-fixing case may be absent. In this article, Professor Edlin argues that there is nonetheless an analogy between a seller offering (and agreeing) …

International Trade Between Consumer And Conservationist Countries, M. Scott Taylor, James A. Brander Oct 1997

International Trade Between Consumer And Conservationist Countries, M. Scott Taylor, James A. Brander

M. Scott Taylor

We consider trade between a Consumer country with an open access renewable resource and a Conservationist country that regulates resource harvesting to maximize domestic steady-state utility. In what we call the mild overuse case, the consumer country exports the resource good and suffers steady-state losses from trade, as suggested by the conventional wisdom that weak resource management standards confer a comparative advantage on domestic firms in the resource sector but cause welfare losses. Strikingly, however, when the resource stock is most in jeopardy, the conservationist country exports the resource good in steady state and both countries gain from trade.

Auction Design For Standard Offer Service, Peter Cramton, Andrew Parece, Robert Wilson

Peter Cramton

During the transition to a competitive electricity market, when a consumer does not select an electricity provider, who provides service to the customer and at what price? An auction for this "standard offer service" is a market-based way to assign the service responsibility and to determine its price. We explore the design issues in establishing rules for such an auction.


El Regreso A La Ciudad Construida, Fernando Carrión Mena Jun 1997

El Regreso A La Ciudad Construida, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

La relación entre suelo urbano y ciudad es indisoluble; tan es así que durante mucho tiempo se las entendió como si fueran lo mismo. Por eso, originalmente, el desarrollo urbano fue concebido como si fuera el resultado de los cambios en los usos de suelo propuestos por la planificación urbana.

Si bien esta comprensión inicial perdura hasta ahora, no se puede negar la existencia de un avance en la comprensión de la temática urbana, que ha llevado a superar esta visión espacialista caracterizada por la sobre determinación de lo espacial a lo social. Pero también, por aquella síntesis que postula …
