Economics of Climate Change and Environmental Policy: Selected Papers of Robert N. Stavins, 2000–2011

The 26 essays in this book, written by Professor Stavins and his co-authors over the period 2000–2011, originally appeared in a diverse set of leading scholarly periodicals, and are collected here for the first time. This book is divided into seven parts: overview; methods of environmental policy analysis; economic analysis of environmental policy instruments; economics and technical change; natural resource economics — land and water; domestic climate change policy; and international climate change policy. The book begins with an introductory essay in which Stavins reflects on his professional history and identifies themes that emerge from his research. The first volume of Professor Stavins' papers was published in 2000 — also by Edward Elgar — covering the period 1988–1999.
