Based on single-country linked Input-Output model, this paper first calculated the balance of emission embodied in trade (BEET) and pollution trade terms (PTT) for China’s international trade during 1996-2004. Our results confirm China as a net emission exporter but also find China’s exports...

With the propensity score matching method, we carried out an average benefit incidence analysis that helps disclose those who really benefited from the sanitary services in Guatemala. Specifically, we tested the role of income, maternal education and social capital on how sanitary...

This article examines whether and how transboundary river water pollution spillover may affect resident’s Willingness to Pay (WTP) for a river water quality improvement project. Based on a CVM survey conducted in 20 cities located in the Xijiang river basin located in south China, our study...

L’estimation des coûts liés à l’imposition de limites aux émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) a fait l’objet de beaucoup d’attention médiatique dernièrement. La Chine étant un des plus grands émetteurs de GES, l’évaluation des coûts pour l’économie chinoise est donc...

Nous utilisons un modèle LSTVAR (Logistic Smooth transition Vector Auto Regression) pour questionner la présence d’une relation asymétrique entre la variation du prix du pétrole et les rendements de l’indice SP 500. Les tests statistiques nous ont confortés dans l’utilisation du...

This paper uses a dynamic CGE model, calibrated to detailed Chinese emissions data, to assess two important questions. What can we reasonably expect Chinese emissions trends to look like over the next three decades? Secondly, what would be the appropriate policy interventions to flatten Chinese...

This paper seeks to understand in which ways income inequality can act on children’ health in Guatemala. We postulate that there are several transmission channels of income inequality on health and that the ethnic and/or rural origin of the children can have an influence on the size and the...

L’intensité de pollution inférieure des firmes de grande taille et leurs moindres coûts marginaux de réduction des émissions demeurent un fait largement documenté dans la littérature empirique. En poursuivant les intuitions de Merlevede et al (2006), nous examinons l’hypothèse...

Observing the weakness in the previous structural analyses on Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) formation, in this paper, author deepens the analysis into the detailed data of production and SO2 emission intensity of the 29 industrial sectors (occupying over 98% of the total industrial...

This paper discusses the validity of the Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis for the case of China’s industrial SO2 emission through both reduced and structural model. The estimated Chinaspecific EKC curve for per capital industrial SO2 emission predicts the turning point of 9000 yuan (2750...
