''Relational contracts as a foundation for contractual incompleteness''
( 2011, Vol. 31 No.3 )
 
 
Contractual incompleteness is generally defined by a trade-off between costs and benefits. We examine this trade-off in a dynamic setting and show how the ability of the parties to sustain a relational contract leads to more incomplete contracts.
 
 
Keywords: Contractual incompleteness, Relational Contract, Reputation, Repeated Games
