討論提要

In this speech, Kaz integrates three papers in a model and tries to review the results using more general models, and elucidates how the results depend on whether the government optimizes with respect to domestic subsidies the degree of socialization of semi-public firms or import tariffs. Moreover, he explores how there works such a strategic incentive to create a semi-public joint-venture firm not only for the foreign firms but also for the host country. Finally, he discusses “Does the free competition among the local government firms realize the higher welfare than under the full privatization of the economy as a whole?”

結論

He has explored that when the weight of the total welfare including the consumer surplus is given property in objective function of the partially privatized firm, the partially privatized firm can commit to the greater output and earns the larger profit than a totally privatized one; has established that the excess entry theorem for private firms also stands for local public firm.

延伸研究

1. Consider some bargaining between the investors and discuss the output decision as the bargaining outcome where the disagreement outcome is given by the state in which there is no inward direct investment.

2. He tried to extend the result to international setting in which each country deliberately chooses to set up the own indigenous industries in perfect competition using taxes and subsidies.
