متن کاملOn the Private Provision of Public Goods
We consider a general model of the non-cooperative provision of a public good. Under very weak assumptions there will always exist a unique Nash equilibrium in our model. A small redistribution of wealth among the contributing consumers will not change the equilibrium amount of the public good. However, larger redistributions of wealth will change the set of contributors and thereby change the ...
متن کاملPrivate provision of discrete public goods
We investigate the private provision of a discrete public good. When the size and decomposition of the group are certain, such a problem has, in general, multiple equilibria. Yet, if it is commonly believed that some individuals may be altruists and that the size of the group is a Poisson random variable then equilibrium is unique. If the decomposition uncertainty is very small and the expected...
متن کاملExplaining Private Provision of Public Goods by Conditional Cooperation
We adopt an evolutionary approach to investigate whether and when conditional cooperation can explain the voluntary contribution phenomenon often observed in public goods experiments and in real life. Formally, conditional cooperation is captured by a regret parameter describing how much an individual regrets to contribute less than the average. We find that the evolutionary stability of condit...
متن کاملGreen Markets and Private Provision of Public Goods
This paper develops a general model of private provision of a public good that includes the option to consume an impure public good. I use the model to investigate positive and normative consequences of “green markets.” Green markets give consumers a new choice: instead of simply consuming a private good and making a donation to an environmental public good, consumers can purchase an impure pub...
