This book examines sequential coalition formation in oligopolies.
Coalitions refer to mergers and acquisitions, cartels, and
associations. The principal aim is the prediction and explanation
of the coalition structure - whether an industry will emerge as a
monopoly, say, or as a collection of sub-coalitions.
In environments where decisions to form coalitions are made
sequentially, the prediction and explanation of the equilibrium
coalition structure can differ dramatically from the textbook
simultaneous-move model. This difference derives from the knowledge
effect, which is unique to the sequential-move models.
