This paper applies the Nash Bargaining solution to wage setting in a vertically differentiated oligopoly and studies its welfare effects.

Abstract

This paper applies the Nash Bargaining solution to wage setting in a vertically differentiated oligopoly and studies its welfare effects. The market outcome crucially depends on the bargaining power attributed to the agents. I show that the wage bargaining structure is likely to lead to another source of inefficiency that adds to the classical one derived by oligopoly pricing and quality choice.
