Money and cooperation in small communities

So Kubota ()

No 2118, Working Papers from Waseda University, Faculty of Political Science and Economics

Abstract: In this note, I investigate the circulation of money in small communities. I build a two-player repeated gift-giving game and then show that players can sustain coopera- tion by using money. An ecient outcome is obtained when players are able to hold multiple units of currency.
