Abstract

Cet article étudie les interactions entre le choix technologique de flexibilité des firmes et la collusion tacite dans un duopole. On montre que l'émergence des technologies flexibles facilite la collusion tacite lorsque les firmes se livrent une concurrence en prix ; en revanche, si la concurrence est en quantités, les technologies flexibles rendent la mise en oeuvre d'un accord de collusion tacite plus difficile. On caractérise les configurations technologiques qui émergent dans ce contexte de jeux répétés. On en déduit que les accords de semi-collusion encouragent l'adoption des technologies flexibles.
