Tiivistelmä: | In trade policy debates, it is often argued that domestic industries should receive temporary protection from import competition. The credibility of temporary protection is examined in a simple infinite horizon, perfect information game of timing in which the domestic government uses the threat of future liberalization to induce domestic firms to invest. All pure strategy subgame-perfect equilibria are cyclical, and one of them implements optimal temporary protection. However, this equilibrium fails to pass another credibility criterion called Renegotiation-proof. The game has a unique stationary subgame-perfect equilibrium in mixed strategies. |
