We borrow standard assumptions from the non-renewable-resource-taxation and from the directed-technical-change literatures, to take a full account of the incentives to perform R&D activities in a dirty-resource sector and in a clean-resource-substitute sector. We show that a gradual rise in the...

Environmental policy and the macroeconomy under shallow-lake dynamics
Heijdra, Ben J.; Heijnen, Pim - 2009
