The Political Economy of Industrial Policies:The Case of Outsourcing / 政治遊說下的產業政策─以海外投資為例

碩士 / 國立東華大學 / 國際經濟研究所 / 91 / This thesis applies Grossman-Helpman’s (1994) common agency game model to investigate how the industrial policies, i.e., the minimum wage and the equipment export tax, change in the presence of lobbying. First, we investigate how the two policies affect domestic production firm’s and outsourcing firm’s profits. From which, we show the motivations for both firms to engage in lobbying. Second, we show that both policies are higher than the social welfare maximized level in the presence of lobbying. Last, we prove that the equilibrium contributions for both interest groups are strictly positive, which implies that both interest groups can capture some rent from lobbying activity.
