Entry Deterrence and Strategic Delegation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We consider a game in which firms' owners assign to their managers a delegation scheme weighting profits and market shares. Managers then compete in quantities.

Strategic Deterrence of Terrorist Attacks

2016
Protection against terrorist threats has become an integral part of organisational and national security strategies.

Self-Confidence and Strategic Deterrence [PDF]

open access: possible, 2011
We examine factors that may contribute to 'overconfidence' in relative ability on an intelligence test. We test experimentally for evidence of self-esteem concerns and instrumental strategic concerns. Errors in Bayesian updating are rare when the information does not involve own relative ability, but far more common when it does, suggesting self-esteem

Strategic alliances, equity stakes, and entry deterrence

Journal of Financial Economics, 2003
