| Abstract: | The behaviour of labour managed and profit seeking firms in a Cournot duopoly with capital strategic interaction is analysed.

If we consider a mixed duopoly, the profit maximising firm under-invests while the labour managed firm over-invests regardless of the rental cost of capital |
