Abstract

[spa] Función de la delegación en una relaciôn de agenda, . por Inès Macho-Stadler y J. David Pérez-Castrillo.. . En el presente artículo se analizan dos modelos de agendas, en las cuales un director contrata a un agente para aportar un esfuerzo productivo inobservable. Sin embargo, el director deberá aportar un esfuerzo de supervisión o de producción, que no puede verificarse y que afecta los intereses del agente. . De esta forma se demuestra que el director considéra que la delegación de esta tarea a otro agente puede ser benéfica separando, por este medio, sus objetivos de la incitación a su propio esfuerzo. En las conclusiones se analiza la estructura jerárquica más adecuada para una organización, teniendo en cuenta las características del modelo. [ger] Die Rolle der Delegation in einer Agenturbeziehung, . von Inès Macho-Stadler, J. David Pérez-Castrillo.. . In diesem Artikel werden zwei Agenturmodelle analysiert, in denen ein Auftraggeber mit emem Agenten einen Vertrag zur Erbringung einer nicht beobachtbaren Produktionsleistung abschließt. Der Auftraggeber muß aber selbst eine nicht überprüfbare Anstrengung zur Überwachung oder zur Fertigung unternehmen, die den Interessen des Agenten zuwiderlaufen. Es wird aufgezeigt, daß es dem Auftraggeber nützlich erscheint, diese Aufgabe einem anderen Agenten zu übertragen, da er dann die Realisierung seiner Zielsetzungen von seiner Überwachungs- oder Fertigungsverpflichtung trennen kann. Die Schlußfolgerungen haben die hierarchische Struktur zum Gegenstand, die sich unter Berücksichtigung der Merkmale unseres Modells am besten für eine Organisation eignet. [eng] The Role of Representation in an Agency Model, . by Inès Macho-Stadler, J. David Pérez-Castrillo.. . This paper analyses two power of agency models in which a principal appoints an agent for a non-observable, productive effort. The difficulty is that the principal also must accomplish an effort which cannot be checked up on either in the area of checking or production, where the agent's interest is at stake. It is profitable for the principal to delegate this task to another agent, thereby separating his objectives from the incentives to his own effort. Our conclusions concern the most appropriate hierarchical structure in an organization on the basis of the characteristics on which our model focuses. [fre] Le rôle de la délégation dans une relation d'agence, . par Inès Macho-Stadler, J. David Pérez-Castrillo.. . Cet article analyse deux modèles d'agence dans lesquels un principal engage un agent pour fournir un effort productif non observable. Or le principal doit lui même fournir un effort, de supervision ou de production, non verifiable, qui affecte les intérêts de l'agent. On montre qu'il trouve profitable de déléguer cette tâche à un autre agent, en séparant par ce moyen ses objectifs, de l'incitation à son propre effort. Les conclusions portent sur la structure hiérarchique la plus adéquate pour une organisation, étant donné les caractéristiques de notre modèle.
