In his first museum solo exhibition, we experience six decades of the Motor City through his eyes.

    Draft, October 27, 2004 WHEN DOES A CONTRACTUAL ADJUSTMENT INVOLVE A HOLDUP?: THE DYNAMICS OF FISHER-BODY- GENERAL MOTORS Benjamin Klein* I. Introduction Fisher Body-General Motors has become a classic example in economics. Since the brief discussion of the case 35 years ago,1 it has been cited more than one thousand times,2 primarily to illustrate the now generally accepted proposition that vertical integration is more likely when transactors make relationship-specific investments.3 The theoretical and empirical confirmation of this proposition is described by Michael Whinston as “one of the great success stories in industrial organization over the last 25 years.”4 The popularity of the Fisher Body-General Motors case may be difficult to understand since it is merely one of many documented examples of the relationship between vertical integration and specific investments.5 However, the Fisher Body-General Motors case uniquely focuses on the dynamics of this * Professor Emeritus, UCLA. I wish to thank Armen Alchian, Paul Joskow, Victor Goldberg, Tom Hubbard, Scott Masten, Harold Mulherin, Mike Smith, and especially Andres Lerner and Kevin Murphy for comments. Bryan Buskas, Joe Tanimura, Tiffany Truong and Joshua Wright provided research assistance. Earlier versions of the paper were presented at Claremont McKenna College and the ISNIE session of the 2004 ASSA meetings in San Diego. 1 Klein, Crawford and Alchian (1978) at 308-310. 2 There are 1,089 cites to Klein, Crawford and Alchian in the Social Sciences Citation Index, October 19, 2004. 3 [Oliver Williamson cites.] 4 Whinston (2001) at 185. 1 relationship.

The Fable of Fisher Body Revisited Ramon Casadesus-Masanell and Daniel Spulber* July 2000 ____________________________ *Harvard Business School Morgan Hall 231, Soldiers Field, Boston, Massachusetts 02163 and Kellogg Graduate School of Management, Northwestern University, 2001 Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL, 60208. Introduction It is difficult to hit a moving target. Benjamin Klein (2000) essentially presents a new Fisher Body story despite his contention that “the facts of the Fisher-GM case are shown to be fully consistent with the hold up description provided in Klein, Crawford, and Alchian.” Klein (2000) concedes many of the points made in the articles by Ronald Coase (2000), Robert Freeland (2000) and Ramon Casadesus-Masanell and Daniel F. Spulber (2000). Contrary to Klein et al. (1978), Klein (2000) now acknowledges that the main economic force behind the merger was the need for coordination: “As body design became more important and more interrelated with chassis design and production, the amount of coordination required between a body supplier and its automobile manufacturer customer increased substantially. [...] These economic forces connected with annual model changes ultimately led all automobile manufacturers to adopt vertical integration.” Despite having made this important admission, Klein creates a new fable: the Flint plant problem.
