Differentiated Bertrand markets: restoring the Minimum Differentiation Principle

Stefano Colombo

Risultato della ricerca: Contributo in rivista › Articolo › peer review

Abstract

I introduce non-perfect substitutability between products into the spatial Bertrand model. I show that if goods are complements, the firms always agglomerate. If goods are substitutes, the firms agglomerate if the transportation costs are not too high.
