Die vergleichende Analyse umweltpolitischer Instrumente kommt regelmäßig zu dem Ergebnis, dass Emissionsabgaben einen höheren Innovationsanreiz auslösen als Emissionsauflagen. Demgegenüber weisen neuere Studien der empirischen Innovationsforschung auf keine eindeutige Rangfolge zwischen den...

This paper investigates the economic implications of a comprehensive approach to sustainable greenhouse policies that strives to stabilise the atmospheric concentration of the five major greenhouse gases at an ecologically determined threshold level. In a theoretical optimisation model...

Strategic environmental policy games are usually based on simultaneous decision making and reach the conclusion that the policy choices are strategic substitutes. Empirical evidence, however, shows that the introduction of a regulatory instrument usually follows a consecutive pattern that is...

We incorporate the process of policy diffusion (i.e. the uncoordinated dissemination of policies among countries) into a probabilistic two-country-model of strategic environmental policy. Contrary to the usual setting with simultaneous decision making we consider the impact of sequential...
