Carbon tariffs revisited
Böhringer, Christoph; Müller, André; Schneider, Jan - 2014
Concerns about adverse impacts on domestic energy-intensive and trade-exposed (EITE) industries are at the fore of the political debate about unilateral climate policies. Tariffs on the carbon embodied in imported goods from countries without emission pricing appeal as a measure to reduce carbon...

The energy efficiency rebound effect in general equilibrium
Böhringer, Christoph; Rivers, Nicholas - 2018
We develop a stylized general equilibrium model to decompose the rebound effect of energy efficiency improvements into … its partial and general equilibrium components. In our theoretical analysis, we identify key drivers of the general … equilibrium rebound effect, including a composition channel, an energy price channel, a labor supply channel, and a growth channel …

Short-term price effects of a carbon tax and implications for sectors competitiveness in small open economies
Gonne, Nicolas - 2010
Asymmetric climate policies are expected to distort the level-playing field regarding international trade, singularly to the detriment of small open economies. The paper develops a flexible method that provides essential input regarding the design of offsetting measures. It builds on...

Trade protection along supply chains
Bown, Chad P.; Conconi, Paola; Erbahar, Aksel; … - 2020
During the last decades, the United States has applied increasingly high trade protection against China. We combine detailed information on US antidumping (AD) duties - the most widely used trade barrier - with US input-output data to study the effects of trade protection along supply chains. To...

Global value chains, trade shocks and jobs : an application to Brexit
Vandenbussche, Hylke; Connell, William; Simons, Wouter - 2019
We develop a network trade model with country-sector level input-output linkages. It includes (1) domestic and global value chain linkages between all country-sectors, (2) direct as well as indirect shipments (via other sectors and countries) to a final destination, (3) value added rather than...

A model of rush-hour traffic in an isotropic downtown area
Arnott, Richard; Kokoza, Anatolii; Naji, Mehdi - 2015
For a quarter century, a top priority in transportation economic theory has been to develop models of rush-hour traffic dynamics that incorporate traffic jams (hypercongestion). The difficulty has been that "proper" models result in mathematical intractabilty, while none of the proposed...

An alternative conditional asymmetry specification for stock returns
Brännäs, Kurt; Nordman, Niklas - 2001
The paper advances the log-generalized gamma distribution as a suitable generator of conditional skewness. Based on the NYSE composite daily returns an asMA-asQGARCH model along with skewness dynamics is estimated. The results indicate a skewness that varies between sizeable negative skewness...
