The present paper describes the construction and first empirical application of the TIGER model (TIGER is an abbreviation of "Transport and Infrastructure General Equilibrium model for Regions"). The TIGER model belongs to the group of regional CGE models, applying a mix of conventional...

The present paper describes the construction and first empirical application of the SUSTRUS model (the name of the model refers to "Sustainable Russia"). This model will be the main result of the same-named EU funded project. The SUSTRUS model belongs to the group of regional CGE models, applied...

State tax revenues from casinos as a share of total state gaming revenues generally correlate well with the year of legalization. Theoretically speaking, heavy tax rates should dampen growth of the casino revenues in states that adopt them. Indeed, states with lower tax rates tend to have larger...

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is one of the most complex and also the most costly of all EU policies. It comprises over 40 financing streams, including Pillar I and Pillar II measures which are highly regulated. In the case of Poland, these are directed to all 16 NUTS2 regions. We are...

We analyze existing definitions of carbon leakage and propose a new rigorous one. This is then tested using computable general equilibrium analysis for unilateral carbon dioxide abatement programs in the European Union in 2020, adopted under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate...

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...
