Regulating the environmental consequences of preferences for social status within an evolutionary framework
Sartzetakis, Eftichios Sofokles; Xepapadeas, Anastasios; … - 2015
Taking as given that we are consuming too much and that overconsumption leads to environmental degradation, the present paper examines the regulator's choices between informative advertisement and consumption taxation. We model overconsumption by considering individuals that care about social...

A new look at the pollution halo hypothesis : the role of environmental policy stringency
Akbulut, Hale; Yereli, Ahmet Burçin - In: Estudios de economía 50 (2023) 1, pp. 31-54
The effect of Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, has attracted the attention of researchers in recent years. However, the indirect effects of environmental policies in the process were not sufficiently considered. This study uses a panel threshold methodology to...

A real-business-cycle model with pollution and environmental taxation : the case of Bulgaria
Vasilev, Aleksandar - 2018
environmental ("carbon") tax on polluting production, as well as the effect of government spending on pollution abatement over the … cycle. In particular, a positive shock to pollution emission in the model works like a positive technological shock, but its … effect is quantitatively very small. Allowing for pollution as a by-product of production improves the model performance …

Regulating stock externalities
Gerlagh, Reyer; Heijmans, Roweno - 2018
We develop a dynamic regulation game for a stock externality under asymmetric information and future market uncertainty. Within this framework, regulation is characterized as the implementation of a welfare-maximization program conditional on informational constraints. We identify the most...

De-fueling externalities : how tax salience and fuel substitution mediate climate and health benefits
Basaglia, Pier; Behr, Sophie M.; Drupp, Moritz A. - 2023 - Revised version: 25th July 2023
This paper provides a comprehensive evaluation of the world’s largest environmental tax reform. We compare carbon and air pollutant emissions of the German transport sector and synthetic counterfactuals following the 1999 eco-tax reform, and find average reductions in external damages of...
