Spheres of Influence in Multigame Contact We study the effect of multigame contact in asymmetric prisoner's dilemma games. Players simultaneously play two games either with the same partner (multigame contact) or with different partners (single-game contact). Asymmetry arises because one game is more valuable to one player, while the other game matters more to the […]

This fact is consistent with landlord production efficiency advantages associated with structural density, arising from economies of scale and coordination frictions. To […]
