Add to basket: Este libro de texto demuestra cómo las teorías económicas pueden ser utilizadas para las evaluaciones de políticas ambientales. Una característica notable de este libro es que, a diferencia de la mayoría de los libros de texto en economía ambiental escritos en inglés, se basa en ejemplos de la política de Japón sobre energía, recursos, contaminación y emisiones de carbono. Las medidas políticas discutidas en este libro incluyen controles sobre las emisiones de vehículos de motor, la fijación de precios de la eliminación de residuos, el plan de depósito y reembolso para el reciclaje, los impuestos sobre el carbono y los sistemas de comercio de emisiones. Con temas que involucran preocupaciones ambientales transfronterizas como el cambio climático, la contaminación del aire y la gestión de residuos y el reciclaje, el libro también integra perspectivas internacionales y proporciona comparaciones de políticas entre regiones y países. Un objetivo principal de este libro es presentar una introducción concisa y accesible a la economía ambiental aplicada a las evaluaciones de políticas en y más allá de Japón. El conocimiento disponible en este libro debe ser muy útil para estudiantes, formuladores de políticas y profesionales que buscan soluciones de política ambiental desde un punto de vista económico. Este es un libro de acceso abierto. EAN: 9789819721863 Tipo: Libros Categoría: Negocios y Economía|Ciencias Título: Introduction to Environmental Economics and Policy in Japan Autor: Toshi H.

This textbook demonstrates how economic theories can be used for environmental policy evaluations. A notable feature of this book is that, unlike most textbooks in environmental economics written in English, it draws on examples from Japan’s policy on energy, resource, pollution, and carbon emissions. Policy measures discussed in this book include controls on motor vehicle emissions, pricing of waste disposal, deposit-refund scheme for recycling, carbon taxes and emissions trading schemes. With topics involving transboundary environmental concerns such as climate change, air pollution, and waste management and recycling, the book also integrates international perspectives and provides comparisons of policies across regions and countries. A major objective of this book is to present a concise and accessible introduction to environmental economics as applied to policy evaluations in and beyond Japan. The knowledge available from this book must be very useful for students, policymakers and practitioners who seek environmental policy solutions from an economic point of view.
This is an open access book.
