Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book addresses three big economic challenges from a dynamic perspective: European integration, economic growth, and global climate change. In the light of the recent crises of the European Union (EU), the first part of the book deals with challenges to the real, monetary and fiscal integration of the EU and required institutional adjustments. The second part of the book addresses fundamental challenges of advanced market economies like economic growth and changes of technologies. The final part focuses on the global challenge of climate change from an economic perspective and discusses policy strategies for a successful mitigation of climate change.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume deals with the multifaceted and interdependent impacts of climate change on society from the perspective of a broad set of disciplines. The main objective of the book is to assess public and private cost of climate change as far as quantifiable, while taking into account the high degree of uncertainty. It offers new insights for the economic assessment of a broad range of climate change impact chains at a national scale. The framework presented in the book allows consistent evaluation including mutual interdependencies and macroeconomic feedback. This book develops a toolbox that can be used across the many areas of climate impact and applies it to one particular country: Austria.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This monograph provides a concise introduction to the overlapping generations approach to the intertemporal economics of renewable natural resources. In contrast to the dominant infinitely-lived agent (ILA) approach it acknowledges that natural resources typically outlive the individuals who use them. Finite lifetimes, generations overlap and competing natural and man-made capital facilitate long-run intergenerational inefficiency and inequity (unsustainability) of market allocations. While avoiding any presumption of either doomsday or a golden age, the book investigates the structural and institutional preconditions needed to ensure that renewable resources are used efficiently and equitably across generations. The primary aim of this book is to provide an easy-to-follow guide to the analytically much more demanding journal literature. This is achieved by using the same model type throughout the book and by adhering to functional specifications that allow for explicit equilibrium solutions.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -This book represents both a textbook and a monograph. Part I entitled ¿Basics¿ mainly contains textbook material and this is also partly true for Part II. Here the precise de nition and characterization of the not so well-known notion of interg- erational ef ciency within Diamond¿s two-period overlapping generations model gures prominently. In Part III, a renewable natural resource is introduced in the log-linear Cobb-Douglas overlapping generations model, and the ef ciency c- cepts developed in Part II are applied. The balance among material for a textbook und for a monograph is approximately even. In Part IV research monograph ch- acteristics gain progressively prominence. While this part dealing with intergene- tional equity in perfectly competitive market economies presents already published work, the last part focusing on harvest cost contains still unpublished work. Asthesubtitle ofthepresentbookannounces,ourintentionisto provideanint- duction to the not so widespread overlappinggenerationsapproach to intertemporal resource economics. It is introductory in that utility and production functions are functionally speci ed such that the interested reader can derive explicit solutions to intertemporal general equilibria. However, we do not primarily aim at enhancing the reader¿s skill of solving general equilibrium models¿we rather aim at prov- ing the tools for coping with analytically much more advanced dynamic general equilibriummodelswith renewable natural resources,published in leading journals. This book emerged out of lectures of the rst author within the master programs of the University of Life Sciences in Vienna and at Karl-Franzens-University of Graz.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 184 pp. Englisch.
