description | We develop a model of strategic networks in order to analyze how trade unions will affect the stability of R&D networks through which knowledge is transmitted in an oligopolistic industry. Whenever firms settle wages, the partially connected network is likely to emerge in the long run if and only if knowledge spillovers are large enough. However, when unions settle wages, the complete network is the unique stable network. In other words, the stronger the union bargaining power is, the more symmetric stable R&D networks will be. In terms of network efficiency, the partially connected network (when firms settle wages) does not Pareto dominate the complete network (when unions settle wages) and vice versa. /// Nous développons un modèle de réseaux stratégiques afin d'analyser comment les syndicats vont affecter la stabilité des réseaux R&D par lesquels les connaissances sont transmises dans une industrie oligopolistique. Lorsque les firmes fixent les salaires, le réseau partiellement connecté émerge à long-terme si et seulement si les externalités de connaissance sont très grandes. Cependant, lorsque les syndicats fixent les salaires, le réseau complet est l'unique réseau stable. En d'autres mots, plus les syndicats sont puissants, plus les réseaux de R&D stables sont symétriques. En ce qui concerne l'efficacité des réseaux, le réseau partiellement connecté (lorsque les firmes fixent les salaires) ne domine pas au sens de Pareto le réseau complet (lorsque les syndicats fixent les salaires) et vice versa. |
