Technological change and managerial challenges in the movie theater industry
Residential segregation, discrimination, and African-American theater entry during Jim Crow
Formal and Informal Contracting
In this article, we review the emerging economic literature on formal and informal contracting. Two patterns emerge from this literature. First, the use of informal contracts to complement formal ones is widespread, both within and between firms. Second, informal contracts are limited by the expectation of future collaborations between the parties. Our review suggests that there are significant opportunities for further integrated research in eco…
New Frontiers in Empirical Research on Informal Contracting
In standard models of informal contracting, parties use discretionary payments to split the known value of their relationship, which results in stable efficient contracts over time. Relaxing simplifying assumptions, recent models shed light on how informal contracts evolve over time, the creation of relational rents, and their sensitivity to path dependence. This paper investigates how these nonstandard theories of informal contracts can be teste…
The Adoption of New Technologies
Hollywood converted to sound in three years. In comparison, Hollywood's conversion to color required more than three decades, and included a three-year period in which the share of color movies declined from 58 to 31percent. We investigate this puzzling adoption profile using detailed data on 7,022 movies between 1940 and 1959. These data indicate differences in studio size and complementarity between genre and color impeded the rapid diffusion o…
Do Democracies Have Different Public Policies than Nondemocracies
Estimates of democracy's effect on the public sector are obtained from comparisons of 142 countries over the years 1960-90. Based on three tenets of voting theory - that voting mutes policy preference intensity, political power is equally distributed in democracies, and the form of voting processes is important-we expect democracy to affect policies that redistribute, or economically favor the political leadership, or enhance efficiency. We do no…
