| Abstract: | This paper analyses the scope for collusive behaviour within the context of an international duopoly supergame in which both firms and monopoly labour unions interact strategically. The authors find that the presence of unions, implying an endogenisation of production costs, dramatically alters the incentives for inter-firm collusion. |
