Ruhr Economic Papers Self-enforcing Norms and the Efficient Non-cooperative Organization of Clans
نویسنده
چکیده
We study how norms can solve distributional conflict inside a clan and the efficient coordination of collective action in a conflict with an external enemy. We characterize a fully non-cooperative equilibrium in a finite game in which a self-enforcing norm coordinates the members on efficient collective action and on a peaceful distribution of the returns of collective action. JEL Classification: D72, D74, H41
