Strategic Complementarity in the Dynamic Private Provision of a Discrete Public Good

Author

  • SEBASTIAN G. KESSING

Individual voluntary contributions to a discrete public good are shown to be strategic complements in a dynamic private provision game. This is in contrast to a public good that can take on any value in a continuum where they are strategic substitutes.
