• Estimating Market Power in the Swiss Petrol Retailing Industry - a New Empirical Industrial Organisation Approach

Several competition authorities have accused petrol retailers of engaging in collusive conduct, which results in alleged "excessive" prices as well as simultaneous price setting across filling stations. However, petrol retailers must exert a substantial amount of market power if they are to dampen competition. Therefore, we propose a method within the spirit of the New-Empirical-Industrial-Organisation, which allows estimating market power held by petrol retailers in terms of a conduct parameter. Based on data for Switzerland, our empirical results suggest a low level of market power held by Swiss petrol retailers.

Not only must today's forward observer be able to detect targets in all weathers and during the day or night, but they must report the position of these targets to artillery units, other troops or aircraft.

• Prospects for Skills-Based Export Growth in a Labor-Abundant, Resource-Rich Developing Economy

In an integrated global economy, specialisation in trade is an increasingly prominent strategy. A labor-abundant, resource-rich economy like Indonesia faces stiff competition in labor-intensive manufactures; meanwhile, rapid growth in demand for resources from China and India exposes it to the 'curse' of resource wealth. This diminishes prospects for more diversified growth based on renewable resources like human capital. Using an international panel data set we explore the influence of resource wealth, foreign direct investment and human capital on the share of skill-intensive products in exports. FDI and human capital increase this share; resource wealth diminishes it. We use the results to compare Indonesia with Thailand and Malaysia. Indonesia's reliance on skill-intensive export...

Whether this firepower comes from artillery or from air strikes is arguably immaterial, what is vital is that it destroys the intended target rapidly, on first strike with minimal collateral damage and risk to friendly forces.
