A multilateral telephone bargaining game

Abstract

This paper studies a multilateral bargaining game with unanimity rule. Offers and responses are communicated through private telephone conversations, and they are never revealed to all players. With a plausible restriction on beliefs, we obtain a unique perfect public equilibrium.
