    Competitiveness and Integration of Product Markets (2000)
    Springer
    Open economies review 11 (2000), S. 359-381 
    Details

    Keywords: competitiveness ; economic integration ; trade unions

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Abstract This article develops a two-country, two-sector model with imperfect competition in one sector and asymmetric labor market structures in the sense that trade unions have wage bargaining power in one country whereas the labor market is competitive in the other country. We use a new approach to model product market integration, and it turns out that the unionized country gains from integration in terms of welfare, and, if the initial level of integration is relatively low, experiences an increase in employment and investment.

    Profit-sharing in a unionized cournot duopoly (1992)
    Springer
    Journal of economics 55 (1992), S. 151-167 
    Details
    ISSN: 1617-7134

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Abstract The main purpose of this paper is to analyze when it is optimal for firms in a unionized duopoly to introduce profit-sharing. It is shown that a firm only prefers a profit-sharing system if its own union does not have “too much” bargaining power, and if the union in the other firm does not have “too much” bargaining power. However, if a firm introduces profit-sharing, the employment increases, and the price in the goods market decreases. Hence, even if it is not in the own interest of a firm to introduce profit-sharing, it may be in the interest of the society.

    Market integration and imperfect competition in labor and product markets (1994)
    Springer
    Open economies review 5 (1994), S. 115-130

    ISSN: 1573-708X

    Notes: Abstract We analyze the consequences of product market integration in a simple two-country, two-sector, general-equilibrium model with imperfect competition due to economies of scale. In contrast to the existing literature we take explicit account of the labor-market structures in the integrating economies. It turns out that the specific labor-market structures are very important for how integration affects total production and product market structure in a particular economy. However, integration always gives rise to a welfare gain in both economies.
