Organizzazione industriale
No full textWritten by two of the field's most respected researchers, Modern Industrial Organization goes beyond the traditional structure-conduct-performance framework by using the latest advances in microeconomic theory, including transaction cost analysis, game theory, contestability, and information economics.

The Avant-Garde Eliot
No full texttranslated by Tomasz Cieślak-SokołowskiThe author of the article describes a mode of twentieth century poetry for which the
key concept is that of constructivism — the specific understanding that language is
itself a field of meaning-making. In the successive parts of her paper, Marjorie Perloff
ponders on Eliot’s The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock with special regard to his actual
literary practice. The poetic mode of instability and dislocation, the poetics of indeterminacy
— she tries to convince us — are to become, in their more extreme forms,
the characteristic mode of such contemporary poets as John Ashbery, Robert Creeley,
Lyn Hejinian and Charles Bernstein.Publikacja dofinansowana przez Wydział Filologiczny Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego

Three Essays on Applied Microeconomics
No full textThis dissertation consists of three essays on applied microeconomics. The first and second essays focus on the impacts of market power and the estimation of markups. The third one focuses on behavioral economics and the impacts of variety changes. In the first chapter, coauthored with Jeffrey M. Perloff, we analyze double markups. Because prices exceed marginal costs in many upstream and downstream industries, downstream prices often reflect a double markup. We are the first to estimate the size of double markups across many industries taking account of direct and indirect upstream markups. The double markups in many U.S. manufacturing industries are large both because of large upstream and downstream markups and increasing returns to scale. Recent papers show that market power has increased in the US economy in the last decades. There is a large variability on the magnitude of the estimated markups. Different methods, data, and periods have been used. Focusing on methods that use industry-level data, the second chapter analyzes how sensitive estimated markups are to the estimation strategy, data, and the period selected. As the number of varieties increases, do sales increase or fall? In the third chapter, coauthored with David McLaughlin, Jeffrey M. Perloff, Tiffany Shih, and Sofia B. Villas-Boas, we test the conflicting predictions of the following two theories. The matching theory says that the more varieties, the greater the chance that a consumer will find a desirable one, so the quantity demanded increases. The overload theory holds that excess choice overwhelms a consumer, so demand drops. A national chain ́s quasi-experimental rollout of new varieties of ice cream and removal of some old varieties allows us to simultaneously identify both effects of changes in varieties. We find support for both theories, and that the matching and overload effects tend to offset each other, except for variety-preferring households
When promoters like scalpers
No full textIf a monopoly supplies a perishable good, such as tickets to a performance, and is unable to price discriminate within a period, the monopoly may benefit from the potential entry of resellers. If the monopoly attempts to intertemporally price discriminate, the equilibrium in the game among buyers is indeterminate when the resellers are not allowed to enter, and the monopoly's problem is not well defined. An arbitrarily small amount of heterogeneity of information among the buyers leads to a unique equilibrium. We show how the potential entry of resellers alters this equilibrium.The moment a performance begins, that seat is dead … . It's like fruit. It's perishable.

The Dynamics of News: Journalism in the 21st-Century Media Milieu
No full textThis new and highly readable textbook by Richard M. Perloff introduces students to the complex world of contemporary news and its theoretical underpinnings, engaging with debates and ethical quandaries.
The book takes readers on a concept-guided tour of the contours, continuities, and changing features of news.
