| Research Abstract |
A number of studies have designed desirable public goods provision mechanisms. In order to determine the better mechanism among these mechanisms, it is necessary to compare their performance. Hence, this research project compares the performance of well-known public goods provision mechanisms. In the public project problem, by using an experimental method, I compare the voluntary contribution mechanism with the pivotal mechanism. Furthermore, in public goods economies with voluntary participation, I theoretically and numerically compare the voluntary contribution mechanism with Lindahl mechanisms.
