The strategic choice of union-oligopoly bargaining agenda
Article Abstract:
A study has been conducted to determine which bargaining type, right-to-manage or efficient-bargaining, can be considered as the industry equilibrium. Findings have indicated that efficient bargaining emerges as the industry equilibrium, even more so under the threat of market entry, for most market configurations, consistent with empirical tests of efficient bargaining versus labor demand market. The model generated by the study shows clearly that labor market organization can have a significant impact on entry deterrence.

Horizontal mergers have been known to concentrate economic power in the hands of a few companies. This has forced public agencies to look closely into proposed horizontal mergers to minimize economic concentration. In a repeated oligopoly, concentration-increasing capital transfers and horizontal mergers are bound to reduce price by levels higher than those presented in previous research.
