Research Abstract |
We consider an effect of an industrial policy that is implemented in one economy (an industry, a region, a country etc.) on equilibrium outcomes in another economy as well as whole one. We impose the assumption that oligopolistic competition prevails in order to examine the effect. We establish the followings. (1) Using general equilibrium analysis, insufficient entry may occur under the situation where excess entry theorem would be derived from partial equilibrium analysis. (2) The formation of FTA strengthens (resp. weakens) the incentive to innovate for the firm in member (resp. non-member) country. (3) Harmonizing patent protection in the South with that in the North may maximize welfare in the South as well as in the North.
