Simulating with RICE coalitionally stable burden sharing agreements for the climate change problem
Eyckmans, Johan; Tulkens, Henry - 1999
In this paper we test empirically with the Nordhaus and Yang (1996) RICE model the core property of the transfer scheme advocated by Germain, Toint and Tulkens (1997). This scheme is designed to sustain full co-operation in a voluntary international environmental agreement by making all...
