Abstract

ABSTRACTThis paper develops a model which embeds the Nash‐equilibrium version of McDonald and Solow's (1981) wage‐bargaining model into an otherwise standard static equilibrium macro model. Equilibrium unemployment is possible. Real shocks to demand result in pro‐cyclical employment and anti‐cyclical real wage movements while money shocks are neutral. This is in some contrast to the results obtained by McDonald and Solow.
