Accumulation of education and regional income growth : limited human capital effects in Norway

Rattsø, Jørn; Stokke, Hildegunn Ekroll - 2011 - Date: February 1, 2011

Accumulation of education and geographic concentration of educated people in cities are expected to generate urban income growth. New economic geography predicts income divergence across regions. We investigate the dynamic process of accumulating tertiary education and regional income growth in...

National income taxation and the geographic distribution of population

Rattsø, Jørn; Stokke, Hildegunn Ekroll - 2015

Income taxation may affect the regional allocation of population when prices vary over space. Our contribution is to compare different income tax systems in a migration equilibrium model for Norway using improved measure of regional wage differences. We apply register data of individual wages...

Willingness to pay for mortality risk reduction and environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis

Morisugi, Masafumi; Sao, Hiroshi; Ohno, Eiji - 2013

Mortality risk due to water pollution is one of serious problems especially for Asian developing countries. The timing to carry out a policy or project against such a problem is typical debate of Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis. With survey data sets in Laos and Vietnam to ask citizens'...

General equilibrium approach consistent with travel cost method for economic evaluation of Beach erosion by climate change

Nakajima, Kazunori; Sakamoto, Naoki - 2013

Numerous attempts have been made to evaluate economic impacts by climate change, and the evaluation method can be classified into two approaches. One is a partial equilibrium approach and the other is a general equilibrium approach. The former method includes a travel cost method (TCM) and a...

Measurement of use and non-use values of Shirakami Mountain Range by using CVM consistent with TCM

Ohno, Eiji; Mori, Ryuta; Morisugi, Masafumi; Sao, Hiroshi - 2013

In this study, we have constructed a valuation model based on the CVM consistent with the TCM, in order to measure the use and the non-use values of environmental goods consistently. And the practicality of our model has been examined, by applying this model to measurement of environmental...

Measurement of use value and non-use value of environmental quality consistent with general equilibrium approach

Sakamoto, Naoki; Nakajima, Kazunori - 2014

This paper proposes the consistent method with general equilibrium models to measure use value and non-use value of large-scale change in environmental quality. First, we develop a general equilibrium model that parameters of the utility function with environmental quality as a dependent...
