Spatial Evolution of Social Norms in a Common-Pool Resource Game

Noailly, Joëlle; Withagen, Cees A.; van den Bergh, … - 2005

We study the conditions for the emergence of cooperation in a spatial common-pool resource game. We consider three types of agents: cooperators, defectors and enforcers. The role of enforcers is to punish defectors for overharvesting the resource. Agents are located around a circle and they only...

Network Formation with Endogenous Decay

Feri, Francesco - 2005

This paper considers a communication network characterized by an endogenous architecture and an imperfect transmission … of information as in Bala and Goyal (2000). We propose a similar network's model with the difference that it is … dominant. Differently from other models, where the network represents only a channel to obtain information or to play a game …

The WITCH Model. Structure, Baseline, Solutions

Bosetti, Valentina; Massetti, Emanuele; Tavoni, Massimo - 2007

WITCH - World Induced Technical Change Hybrid - is a regionally disaggregated hard-link hybrid global model with a neoclassical optimal growth structure (top-down) and a detailed energy input component (bottom-up). The model endogenously accounts for technological change, both through learning...

Production Functions for Climate Policy Modeling: An Empirical Analysis

van der Werf, Edwin - 2007

Quantitative models for climate policy modeling differ in the production structure used and in the sizes of the elasticities of substitution. The empirical foundation for both is generally lacking. This paper estimates the parameters of two-level CES production functions with capital, labour and...

Optimal Timing of Environmental Policy; Interaction Between Environmental Taxes and Innovation Externalities

Gerlagh, Reyer; Kverndokk, Snorre; Rosendahl, Knut Einar - 2007

This paper addresses the impact of endogenous technology through research and development (R&D) and learning by doing (LbD) on the timing of environmental policy. We develop two models, the first with R&D and the second with LbD. We study the interaction between environmental taxes and...

Exhaustible Resources, Technology Choice and Industrialization of Developing Countries

Färnstrand Damsgaard, Erika - 2010

How should the world economy adapt to the increased demand for exhaustible resources from countries like China and India? To address that issue, this paper presents a dynamic model of the world economy with two technologies for production; a resource technology which uses an exhaustible resource...

Welfare Analysis in a Schumpeterian Growth Model with Capital

Hagedorn, Marcus; Kaul, Ashok; Reinthaler, Volker - 2001

In this note we compare the laissez-faire steady-state solution in the Howitt and Aghion (1998) model to the social optimum. The analysis offers several new insights in comparison to the welfare analysis in Aghion and Howitt (1992). We find various new distortions between private and optimal...
