Public goods and public policy

Frank Ackerman, Elizabeth Stanton

Open publisher page 51 citations

Abstract

Climate change poses unique economic problems that raise new, fundamental issues, both about uncertainty and about public goods and public policy. New economic analysis primarily concerned with uncertainty was covered in Chapter 6, while analyses primarily concerned with public goods and public policy issues are addressed in this chapter. The separation, however, is not a clean or unambiguous one, and the two chapters should be read together.
