The author regrets that there are errors found in some of the equations in this article:

  • On p. 230, in the sentence “(b) If the elite accepts the offer, then E receives $x_{1}$ , and A receives $1-x_{1}+b$ . The game moves on to the next decision-making step,” “E” and “A” should be replaced with “the elite” and the incumbent, respectively.

  • On p. 231, in the sentence “Even strong (high $p$ ) elites face poverty when they lose in a rebellion attempt,” “high $p$ ” should be replaced with high $p_{t}$ .

  • The formula at the top of page 232 should be numbered (*).

  • For the sake of consistency with the above correction, in the sentence on p. 233, “Let us ignore that $k$ is the function of $p_{t}$ and denote the solutions of Equation (3),” “Equation (3)” should be replaced with “Equation (*).”

  • On p. 233, the sentence “That means, we ignore that $k$ is the function of $p_{t}$ and denote the solutions of Equation (2),” should read “Equation (2) in Appendix,” as Equation (2) does not appear in the main text.

  • On p. 233, in the sentence “a tolerant and decentralised regime with $k^{h}(p_{t})$ and an intolerant and centralised regime with $k^{l}(p_{t})$ , such that $k^{h}(p_{t})k^{l}(p_{t})$ for all $p_{t}$ (see Figure 3),” “ $k^{h}(p_{t})k^{l}(p_{t})$ ” should read “ $k^{h}(p_{t}) \gt k^{l}(p_{t})$ .”

  • In Proposition 5, “ $\hat p_{1} \gt \hat p_{2}$ if the elite is deterrable in Period 2” should read “ $\hat p_{1} \gt \hat p_{2}$ if the elite is not deterrable in Period 2.”

The author apologises for these errors, and wishes to correct them through this notice.
