dc.description.abstractMotivated by anecdotal as well as econometric evidence from Italy, we ask whether privateschools can provide lower quality than public schools. Using a stylized model of theeducation market with sequential entry of a public and a private school, we show that,depending on the underlying parameters of the model, a market structure with the privateschool offering at a positive price lower quality than the public school can be an equilibrium.The calibrated parameters for Italy suggest the existence of such an equilibrium in the Italianmarket for education.en
