Environmental theory and policy are becoming central issues
in economics as in other fields of science. This volume
focuses on selected aspects of environmental economics.
The four papers of the first part deal with more general
aspects. They discuss the environmental limits to growth
(Wilfred Beckerman), ecological concerns in a market
economy (Johannes Heister and Friedrich Schneider),
philosophical aspects of intergenerational justice (Joanna
Pasek) and evolutionary economics as an approach to
environmental problems (Georg Erdman). The three papers of
the second part deal with policy instruments. They discuss
the designing of markets for CO2 emissions and other
pollutants (Johannes Heister and Peter Michaelis), pollution
charges as a source of public revenues (Wallace E. Oates)
and the role of economic incentives for resourcemanagement
in developing countries (Edward B. Barbier). The two papers
of the third part deal with trade issues. They discuss the
impactof domestic environmental policy on international
trade (James A. Tobey) andthe economics of trade in
endangered species (Joanne C. Burgess). The two papers of
the final part deal with the global dimension. They discuss
tropical deforestation (Torsten Amelung) and the question
how much we should invest in preserving our current climate
(William D. Nordhaus). The contributors include
internationally renowned scholars.
