    • Mobility and Conflict 

      Kundu, Tapas; Bhattacharya, Sourav; Deb, Joyee (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-02)
      We study the role of intergroup mobility in the emergence of conflict. Two groups compete for the right to allocate society's resources. We allow for costly intergroup mobility. The winning group offers an allocation, which the opposition can accept or reject, and wage conflict. Agents can also switch group membership. Expropriating a large share of resources increases political strength by attracting ...

The rationale for studying income taxation in this particular context is that first best taxes on housing wealth may be ...

      Brækkan, Eivind Hestvik; Thyholdt, Sverre Braathen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-10-16)
      We measure demand growth for all salmon-importing regions of the world using an index approach for the 2002–2011 period. Our results demonstrate that there are substantial variations in demand growth by region and over time. Russia and Brazil exhibit the highest demand growth, with average annual growth rates of approximately 20%. More established markets, such as the United States and Japan, ...
    • Hvilken råstoffstrategi er mest lønnsom for norske filetbedrifter? 

      Nilssen, Jon; Bertheussen, Bernt Arne; Dreyer, Bent (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      I artikkelen spør vi først om det er forskjeller i lønnsomheten til de få gjenværende filetbedriftene i Norge. Dette får vi bekreftet ved å analysere ti år med regnskapsdata for hele populasjonen. Deretter spør vi om variasjonen i lønnsomheten kan knyttes til bedriftenes valg av råvareleverandører. Våre resultater viser at bedriftene som har den høyeste andelen ferskt kvalitetsråstoff, oppnår bedre ...

      Clark, Derek John; Pereau, Jean Christophe (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      We consider a vertical structure in which an upstream manufacturer bargains with a downstream retailer over the price of an intermediate good. In an alternating offers framework, we show that when the managers of the firms can choose their response time in the negotiation that the solution conforms either to the non-intergrated or fully integrated structure from standard models of successive monopoly.
