Environmental Policy and Time Consistency: Emission Taxes and Emissions Trading
The findings, interpretations, and conclusions expressed in this paper are entirely those of the authors. They do not necessarily represent the views of the World Bank, its Executive Directors, or the countries they represent. A key consideration in the choice of pollution control instruments is the incentive for regulated firms to adopt cleaner technologies. The adoption of less polluting prod...
متن کاملDo Higher Corporate Taxes Reduce Wages? Micro Evidence from Germany
Because of endogeneity problems very few studies have been able to identify the incidence of corporate taxes on wages. We circumvent these problems by using an 11-year panel of data on 11,441 German municipalities’ tax rates, 8 percent of which change each year, linked to administrative matched employer-employee data. Consistent with our theoretical model, we find a negative effect of corporate...
متن کاملStrategic Voting for Noncooperative Environmental Policies in Open Economies
In this paper, we construct a political-economy model of international noncooperative environmental policymaking, and examine the strategic incentives for voters to elect an environmental policymaker in open economies. We show that under several circumstances, citizens have an incentive to deliberately vote for a candidate whose environmental preferences differ from their own. Further, the stra...
متن کاملShadow prices, environmental stringency, and international competitiveness
Empirical tests of the relationship between international competitiveness and the severity of environmental regulations are hampered by the lack of pollution abatement cost data for nonU.S. countries. The theory of the firm suggests that environmental stringency can be measured by the difference between a polluting input’s shadow price and its market price. We make a first attempt at quantifyin...
متن کاملEnvironmental Consumer Subsidies and Potential Reductions of CO2 Emissions
In the environmental debate, global problems clearly gained importance. Successful international conventions could reduce the threats posed by acid rain, ozone depletion and hazardous wastes. Next to end-of-pipe solutions (like placing scrubbers), cleaner inputs (like low-sulphur coal), cleaner products or retrofit processes (replacing CFCs by HCFCs and HFCs) were available in due course. Acid ...
