Knowing the Damages is not Enough: The General Equilibrium Impacts of Climate Change
Kalkuhl, Matthias; Edenhofer, Ottmar - 2016
We show that economies may exhibit a strong endogenous macroeconomic adaptation response to climate change. If climate change induces a structural change to the more productive sector, economies can benefit from climate change though productivities in both sectors are reduced. If climate change...

Environmental policy design and the fragmentation of international markets for innovation
Johnstone, Nick; Hascic, Ivan - 2009
It has long been argued that the implementation of market-based environmental policy instruments such as environmentally-related taxes and tradable permits is likely to lead to greater technological innovation than more direct forms of regulation such as technology-based standards. One of the...

Pollution, shadow economy and corruption: Theory and evidence
Biswas, Amit K.; Farzanegan, Mohammad Reza; Thum, Marcel - 2011
We study how the shadow economy affects pollution and how this effect depends on corruption levels in public … be accompanied by higher pollution levels. Our theoretical model predicts that controlling the levels of corruption can … limit the effect of the shadow economy on pollution. We use panel data covering the period from 1999-2005 from more than 100 …

Prevention and Mitigation of Epidemics: Biodiversity Conservation and Confinement Policies
Augeraud-Véron, Emmanuelle; Fabbri, Giorgio; Schubert, … - 2020
This paper presents a first model integrating the relation between biodiversity loss and zoonose pandemic risks in a general equilibrium dynamic economic set-up. The occurrence of pandemics is modeled as Poissonian leaps in economic variables. The planner can intervene in the economic and...
