Abstract
This dissertation is a collection of essays on the design and analysis of markets. I propose ways to change the rules of existing market mechanisms and analyze how these changes can increase market efficiency, and I develop empirical methods for analyzing market performance. Chapter 2 proposes a way to measure the manipulability of derivative contract markets. Chapter 3 proposes a new kind of license for allocating natural resource use rights. Chapter 4 develops general empirical methods based on mechanism design theory for analyzing a large class of trading games.
