Abstract
We analyze bargaining situations in which the feasible set is known but the disagreement point is uncertain. By requiring that all agents, generally, be affected by the uncertainty in the same way, we characterize thelexicographic egalitarian solution.
Zusammenfassung
Wir analysieren Verhandlungssituationen, in denen die Menge der erreichbaren Auszahlungen bekannt, der Drohpunkt jedoch unsicher ist. Durch die Forderung, daß, allgemein gesprochen, alle Spieler (Agenten) in derselben Weise von der vorherrschenden Unsicherheit betroffen sind, charakterisieren wird dielexikographisch egalitäre Lösung.
