Economic growth and sustainable development: how should we discount the future?

Long, Yiming; Ekeland, Ivar; Zhou, Qinglong - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2012

In 1987, the Brundtland Commission famously defined sustainable development as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the needs of the future”. This paper is concerned with translating this definition in the framework of the neoclassical one-sector model of...

Introduction: Global Environmental Commons: Analytical and Political Challenges in Building Governance Mechanisms

Brousseau, Eric; Dedeurwaerdere, Tom; Jouvet, Pierre-André - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2012

The interdependency of socio-ecological systems and the increased reach of human activity have led to major political and scientific challenges in the governance of environmental resources. This chapter reviews the state of our knowledge on the matter. The chapter begins by discussing the...

Reviewing Composite Vulnerability and Resilience Indexes: A Sustainable Approach and Application

Angeona, Valérie; Bates, Samuel - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2015

Vulnerability–resilience indexes fail to grasp all dimensions of sustainability, whereas sustainable development has … gained momentum. We fill this gap with a hierarchical multimetric composite index (Net Vulnerability Resilience Index: NVRI … vulnerability and resilience are policy-responsive and that (ii) there is no determinism for a country to remain vulnerable or …

Payoff-dependant Balancedness and Cores

Bonnisseau, Jean-Marc; Iehlé, Vincent - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2007

We prove the non-emptiness of the core of an NTU game satisfying a condition of payoff-dependent balancedness, based on transfer rate mappings. We also define a new equilibrium condition on transfer rates and we prove the existence of core payoff vectors satisfying this condition. The additional...

Efficient allocations and equilibria with short-selling and incomplete preferences

Le Van, C.; Dana, Rose-Anne - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2014

This paper reconsiders the theory of existence of efficient allocations and equilibria when consumption sets are unbounded below under the assumption that agents have incomplete preferences. Our model is motivated by an example in the theory of assets with short-selling where there is risk and...

Equilibria in reflexive Banach lattices with a continuum of agents

Araujo, Aloisio; Martins-da-Rocha, Victor-Filipe; … - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2004

We consider exchange economies with a measure space of agents and for which the commodity space is a separable and reflexive Banach lattice. Under assumptions imposing uniform bounds on marginal rates of substitution, positive results on core-Walras equivalence were established in...

Matching for Teams

Carlier, Guillaume; Ekeland, Ivar - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2010

We are given a list of tasks Z and a population divided into several groups X j of equal size. Performing one task z requires constituting a team with exactly one member x j from every group. There is a cost (or reward) for participation: if type x j chooses task z, he receives p j (z);...

Labor Contracts With Two-Dimensional Adverse Selection

Carlier, Guillaume; Gaumont, Damien - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2000

We study incentive-compatible labor contracts in the case where both individual productivity and subjective discount rate are unobservable by the rm. We rst show that unidimensional manifolds of agents group on the same contract. High , low agents may choose the same contract as low , high...

General equilibrium with producers and brokers existence and regularity

Jouini, Elyès; Kallal, Hedi - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 1993

In this paper we prove the existence of general equilibrium with transaction costs generalizing Hahn's (Review of Economic Studies, 1973, 40, 449-461) model by introducing producers and nonconvexities (in particular we allow for increasing returns in transaction sets). We also recover any...

Overlapping Sets of Priors and the Existence of Efficient Allocations and Equilibria for Risk Measures

Dana, Rose-Anne; Le Van, Cuong - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2010

The overlapping expectations and the collective absence of arbitrage conditions introduced in the economic literature to insure existence of Pareto optima and equilibria with short-selling when investors have a single belief about future returns, is reconsidered. Investors use measures of risk....
