Transport generates many externalities, some related to atmospheric pollution. In this paper, we focus on two: greenhouse gases, and local pollution. In the search for optimal transport policies, these two externalities have usually been analysed separately. Here, we study them jointly, in a...

Vaccination campaigns to prevent the spread of epidemics are successful only if the targeted populations subscribe to the recommendations of health authorities. However, because compulsory vaccination is hardly conceivable in modern democracies, governments need to convince their populations...

Global environmental phenomena like climate change, major extinction events or flutype pandemics can have catastrophic consequences. By properly assessing the outcomes involved - especially those concerning human life - economic theory of choice under uncertainty is expected to help people take...

L'évaluation de politiques de prévention sanitaire par le recours à des Consentements A Payer (CAP) issus d'enquêtes auprès de la population est de plus en plus fréquent. Lorsque ces politiques revêtent une dimension collective, les CAP déclarés par les individus peuvent refléter une...

AbstractThis paper concerns the difficulty of taking long-term effects on health into account in an economic valuation. Indeed, public decision makers should incorporate the cessation lag between implementation of an abatement policy and achievement of all of the expected mortality-related...

Cet article propose une méthode d'évaluation monétaire des politiques de prévntion dont les bénéfices sanitaires s'étalent dans le temps. La méthodologie proposée prend en compte l'effet de latence entre la mise en place de la politique et l'obtention de l'ensemble des bénéfices...

This paper is devoted to the analysis of the General Practitioners' (GPs) labour supply, specifically focusing on the physicians' labour supply responses to higher compensations. This analysis is mainly aimed at challenging the reality of a ‘backward bending' form for the labour supply of GPs....

In this article, we consider starting point bias as a heterogeneous phenomenon, that is, respondents in CV surveys do not anchor in the sameway. We study the consequences of a mistaken assumption of homogeneous anchoring for the analysis of the shift effect in multiple-bounded dichotomous choice...
