''The tax competition game revisited: When leadership may be optimal''
( 2014, Vol. 34 No.1 )
 
 
In this paper, we investigate the impact of leadership in a tax competition game. We show that leadership by a group of countries is pareto improving for each country (leaders and followers) compared to a Nash equilibrium outcome. In addition, a coalition of leaders is also pareto improving and this coalition is stable.
