Abstract

Ebben a tanulmányban azt vizsgáljuk, hogy a féloldalas aszimmetrikus információjú dinamikus alkumodelleknek van-e empirikus relevanciájuk váltságdíj-tárgyalási helyzetekben. Vizsgálatunkhoz egy történelmi adatbázist használunk, amely több mint tízezer, berber fogságban lévő - spanyol delegációk által kiváltott - fogoly adatait tartalmazza. Olyan többkörös tárgyalásokat figyelünk meg, amelyek az alulinformált fél (az eladó) szemszögéből ex ante hasonlók voltak, viszont bizonyos információkat csak a vevő tudott. Először egy redukált formájú elemzés során teszteljük a dinamikus alkumodellek főbb kvalitatív előrejelzéseit. Ezek után strukturálisan kiszámítjuk Cramton [1991] modelljét, hogy összehasonlítsuk egymással a két különböző berber bázison folyó tárgyalásokat. A fő következtetésünk az, hogy az alkudozásra használt történelmi intézmények a jelentős aszimmetrikus informáltság ellenére igen hatékonyak voltak.* Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) kód: C78, D8, N43, N47.
