Abstract: Abstract My dissertation was an extension of Aumann and Kurz 1977 work on “Power and Taxes.” Hugo and I were initially interested in Coase’s Theorem and the particular angle involved bargaining models. Hugo suggested that I read Aumann and Kurz’s paper 1977 Econometrica paper and the Aumann-Shapley book, Values of Non-Atomic Games. I became quite intrigued by the Aumann-Kurz model, and an extension, discarding the assumption of inelastic labor supply, became my thesis. Hugo was very supportive and even though this is not quite the original focus, he never tried to dissuade me.
