Example text
Each country differs only by endowments of commodities. The examples are chosen so that the trade pattern turns out to be the assumed one. 1 . 1 The ijth element of Y is country i's endowment of commodity j . ) The results are fully reported in tables 1-3. In this example A 1. is blocked by {2, 3} and {3, 2} because 2 and 3 are better off forming a customs union than at the noncooperative optimal tariff equilibrium. Free trade, A 8 , is blocked by {1}, {1,2}, {2, 1}, {1,3} and {3, 1}. Country 1 is better off with tariffs regardless of whether or not 2 and 3 form a customs union.
Hence, our results indicate that the attempt to attain free trade by direct negotiations may be doomed to failure . The explanation for this failure is that strategic behavior constitutes a barrier to free trade which cooperation (in the form of direct negotiation) may not overcome. Specifically, choosing non-free trade policies is in the individual strategic interest of each country. While these results seem pessimistic, they suggest a solution to the problem of the existence of tariffs. Using cooperative game theory without side payments, we have shown that free trade will be difficult to obtain because choosing a tariff-ridden strategy will usually be in the best interest of each country.
This is HFJ in Figure 5. We repeat the procedure. Hand J are the respective most selfish demands. We connect them and choose the midpoint and further reduce the size of the negotiation set. Using this procedure the negotiation set will converge to one point. The Raiffa solution yields results similar to the Nash cooperative solution. Again, if both countries are symmetric then free trade will be chosen. If the gains from moving to free trade are unequally distributed then free trade will not be the solution.
