Netzwerkeffekte: eine neue Begründung für die strategische Handelspolitik?

Abstract

Netzwerkeffekte können zu imperfektem Wettbewerb führen und damit eine strategische Handelspolitik begründen. In einem Modell horizontaler Differenzierung mit Netzwerkeffekten wird die Wirkung strategischer Handelspolitik untersucht. Es zeigt sich, daß staatliche Interventionen tatsächlich die Wohlfahrt in den Produzentenländern steigern können. Eine kritische Analyse der Argumente für und wider strategische Interventionen zeigt jedoch, daß Freihandel ein (zweitbestes) Optimum bleibt.
