We characterize the set of stationary subgame perfect e... Read More about Legislative bargaining with heterogeneous disagreement values: theory and experiments.

Proportional payoffs in legislative bargaining with weighted voting: a characterization (2017)
Journal Article
Montero, M. (2017). Proportional payoffs in legislative bargaining with weighted voting: a characterization. Quarterly Journal of Political Science, 12(3), https://doi.org/10.1561/100.00016019

This paper examines the relationship between voting weights and expected equilibrium payoffs in legislative bargaining and provides a necessary and sufficient condition for payoffs to be proportional to weights. This condition has a natural interpret... Read More about Proportional payoffs in legislative bargaining with weighted voting: a characterization.

Communication, leadership and coordination failure (2017)
Journal Article
Dong, L., Montero, M., & Possajennikov, A. (2018). Communication, leadership and coordination failure. Theory and Decision, 84(4), https://doi.org/10.1007/s11238-017-9617-9

We investigate the limits of communication and leadership in avoiding coordination failure in minimum effort games. Our environment is challenging, with low benefits of coordination relative to the effort cost. We consider two leader types: cheap-tal...
