Immigrant locations and native residential preferences: Emerging ghettos or new communities?
2019, Journal of Urban EconomicsCitation Excerpt :As in global or network games (Carlsson and Van Damme, 1993; Jackson and Yariv, 2007), the decision to flee by natives may endogenously depend on the formation of higher order beliefs about the expectations of other natives in their neighborhoods or networks. Native flight could be more likely when most natives believe that their current neighborhood will tip and that potential destination neighborhoods are safe from ethnic intrusion, a point made theoretically by Frankel and Pauzner (2002). The environment in our research was likely to make segregationist coordination difficult.
Dynamic coordination among heterogeneous agents
2017, Journal of Mathematical EconomicsCitation Excerpt :They base their analysis on a model of sectorial choice as in Matsuyama (1991). Similar frameworks have been used to study neighborhood choices (Frankel and Pauzner, 2002), carry trades and speculation (Plantin and Shin, 2006), speculative attacks (Daniëls, 2009), business cycles (Frankel and Burdzy, 2005; Guimaraes and Machado, forthcoming) and efficiency in settings with network externalities (Guimaraes and Pereira, 2016).1 The paper is related to the literature on coordination in games with strategic complementarities.
Efficient ex-ante stabilization of firms
2017, Journal of Economic TheoryCitation Excerpt :This property makes global games useful for studying aggregate fluctuations and crises. Applications include bank runs and international contagion (Goldstein and Pauzner, 2004, 2005), currency crises, debt pricing, and market crashes (Morris and Shin, 1998, 2004a, 2004b), search-driven business cycles (Burdzy and Frankel, 2005), investment cycles (Chamley, 1999; Oyama, 2004), neighborhood tipping (Frankel and Pauzner, 2002), and merger waves (Toxvaerd, 2008). The investment subgame played by the agents in our model is a global game.
QWERTY is efficient
2016, Journal of Economic TheoryCitation Excerpt :This paper builds on the model of Frankel and Pauzner (2000). They base their analysis on a model of sectorial choice (along the lines of Matsuyama, 1991), but their framework has been used to analyze location choices (Frankel and Pauzner, 2002), carry trades and speculation (Plantin and Shin, 2006), speculative attacks (Daniëls, 2009) and business cycles (Frankel and Burdzy, 2005; Guimaraes and Machado, 2015).3 The model of currency attacks in Guimaraes (2006) and the model of debt runs in He and Xiong (2012) employ similar timing frictions.4
Blockbusting: Brokers and the dynamics of segregation
2015, Journal of Economic TheoryCitation Excerpt :There is substantial evidence that brokers steer—i.e., match—minority and white buyers and sellers to particular houses, particular households, and/or particular neighborhoods (Turner and Mikelsons [36], Ondrich, Ross and Yinger [30]). Yet dynamic models of urban segregation (Schelling [33], Benabou [6,7], Becker and Murphy [5], Frankel and Pauzner [19]) do not explain whether brokers have an incentive to match sellers to same-race buyers or to buyers of another race; and when brokers have incentives and are able to substantially change a neighborhood's racial composition. This paper focuses on the ability and the incentives of a real estate broker to engage in blockbusting.
