Abstract

This paper studies the implementation of society's policy functions in stationary Markov-perfect equilibrium. We identify a monotonicity condition, a natural but nontrivial stationary recursive extension of Maskin monotonicity. We also show that our condition is sufficient under a mild regularity condition when there are three or more agents. We apply our result to a market solution for intertemporal trades and the recursive median voter solution for public capital accumulation.
