The risk of policy tipping and stranded carbon assets

Ploeg, Frederick van der; Rezai, Armon - 2019 - Revised July 2019

If global warming is to stay below 2°C, there are four risks of assets stranding. First, substantial fossil fuel reserves will be stranded at the end of the fossil era. Second, this will be true for exploration capital too. Third, unanticipated changes in present or expected future climate...

Skill policies for Scotland

Heckman, James J. (contributor); … - 2005

This paper argues that skill formation is a life-cycle process and develops the implications of this insight for Scottish social policy. Families are major producers of skills, and a successful policy needs to promote effective families and to supplement failing ones. Targeted early...

L1-Penalised quantile regression in high-dimensional sparse models

Belloni, Alexandre; Chernozhukov, Victor - 2009

We consider median regression and, more generally, quantile regression in high-dimensional sparse models. In these models the overall number of regressors p is very large, possibly larger than the sample size n, but only s of these regressors have non-zero impact on the conditional quantile of...

Set identification with Tobin regressors

Chernozhukov, Victor; Rigobón, Roberto; Stoker, Thomas … - 2009

We give semiparametric identification and estimation results for econometric models with a regressor that is endogenous, bound censored and selected, called a Tobin regressor. First, we show that true parameter value is set identified and characterize the identification sets. Second, we propose...

Quantile and average effects in nonseparable panel models

Chernozhukov, Victor; Fernández-Val, Iván; Newey, … - 2009

This paper gives identification and estimation results for quantile and average effects in nonseparable panel models, when the distribution of period specific disturbances does not vary over time. Bounds are given for interesting effects with discrete regressors that are strictly exogenous or...

Evaluating marginal policy changes and the average effect of treatment for individuals at the margin

Carneiro, Pedro; Heckman, James J.; Vytlacil, Edward - 2009

This paper develops methods for evaluating marginal policy changes. We characterize how the effects of marginal policy changes depend on the direction of the policy change, and show that marginal policy effects are fundamentally easier to identify and to estimate than conventional treatment...

Sparse models and methods for optimal instruments with an application to eminent domain

Belloni, A.; Chen, D.; Chernozhukov, Victor; Hansen, … - 2010

sample size, n. We rigorously develop asymptotic distribution and inference theory for the resulting IV estimators and … functions which are of independent theoretical and practical interest. Specifically, we develop the asymptotic theory for these … innovatively using moderate deviation theory for self-normalized sums, we provide convergence rates for these estimators that are …
