Economic Incentives and Environmental Policies - Principles and Practice (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1994)


This book contains a collection of papers on economic incentives and environmental policies which result from the authors' joint research work in the program Environment, Science and Society', conducted under the auspices of the European Science Foundation, with whose cooperation the book has been published. The work concentrates on the scientific and methodological aspects of the development, implementation and evaluation of economic instruments at a national level. The research is both theoretical and empirical. At a theoretical level attention is given to the dynamics of instrument choice in various political and economic contexts, and to the means for evaluating economic instruments in terms of their effectiveness and efficiency. At an empirical level the research seeks to investigate the performance of economic instruments in reality and to explore options for new approaches on the interface between technology, economy and the environment. A subject index complements this first volume in the ESF Environment, Science and Society' series.
