This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÔIngeniously organized in a life cycle format, the Handbook covers environmental taxation concepts, design, acceptance, implementation, and impact. The universal themes discussed in each area will appeal to a broad range of readers.Õ Ð Larry Kreiser, Cleveland State University, US ÔThis book is a smart and useful readerÕs guide providing analytical tools for a full comprehension of environmental taxes, with an interdisciplinary approach that looks at all the different phases of environmental taxation: from the design to the implementation, the political acceptance and the impact on the economy. The authorsÕ effort is very successful in endowing academicians, policy makers and the general public with an excellent proof of the effectiveness of environmental taxes and green tax reforms.Õ Ð Alberto Majocchi, University of Pavia, Italy ÔPutting the words ÒenvironmentÓ next to ÒtaxationÓ might not always be the flavour of the month, but no modern society can ignore the value of the natural environment and the need to maintain its good quality and no competitive economy can prosper without the necessary tax revenues to function. Environmental taxation offers the prospect of moving towards a more resource-efficient economy, where preference is given to tax more what we burn, less what we earn. I welcome this contribution to the literature.Õ Ð Commissioner Connie Hedegaard, European Commission ÔThe Milne and Andersen volume provides a splendid treatment of environmental taxation that encompasses the basic conceptual issues, problems of tax design and implementation, and several insightful case studies that show how environmental taxes actually work in practice. It is the best overall treatment of environmental taxation available: comprehensive, rigorous, and readable.Õ Ð Wallace Oates, University of Maryland, US The Handbook of Research on Environmental Taxation captures the state of the art of research on environmental taxation. Written by 36 specialists in environmental taxation from 16 countries, it takes an interdisciplinary and international approach, focusing on issues that are universal to using taxation to achieve environmental goals. The Handbook explores the conceptual foundations of environmental taxation, essential elements for designing environmental tax measures, factors that influence the acceptance of environmental taxation, the variety of ways to implement environmental taxes, their environmental and economic impact and, finally, the larger question of the role of taxation among other policy approaches to environmental protection. Intermixing theory with case studies, the Handbook offers readers lessons that can be applied around the world. It identifies key bodies of research for people who are already working in the field or entering the field and highlights issues that call for more research in the future. With systematic analysis of key issues in environmental taxation, this book will appeal to researchers, governments, think tanks, NGOs, and academics in law, economics, political science and public finance, as well as students specializing in environmental taxation and other market-based instruments.

Download or read book Environmental Taxes in Developing and Transition Economies written by Randall A. Bluffstone and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents the theory of environmental taxation with special reference to developing countries (DC) and countries with economies in transition (TC). A review of the literature shows there exist several examples of environmental taxes being used to reduce environmentally harmful behavior. Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union and China have large-scale systems of pollution taxes and other countries are also experimenting with this type of instrument, particularly to reduce water pollution. Several countries have used taxes on environmentally harmful products, such as transport fuels, to raise revenues and reduce pollution. Challenges are associated with the use of environmental taxes in developing and transition countries, but the evidence suggests that despite shortcomings these instruments are making important contributions to environmental protection and economic efficiency.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Green Economy Transition in Europe: Strategies, Regulations, and Instruments aims to investigate the current green economic and financial practices, strategies and regulations in Europe, the European Union and its member states. In this context, the EU's current green economic policies, instruments and practices will be discussed and analyzed. The study seeks to answer the question: “Did climate change and the unsustainability of fossil resources initiate the green transformation in Europe in the area of finance and economy, and how were the tools, policies and regulations used for this shape in the green economy?”. This study differs from previous studies with an interdisciplinary approach, focusing in detail on green economic transition and transformation issues in Europe and the EU.

Download or read book Tax Policy and the Environment written by Mr.David C. L. Nellor and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1994-09-01 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides a framework for examining environment taxes. It reviews the theoretical efficiency of three types of environment taxes: taxes on emissions or Pigouvian taxes; taxes on productive inputs or consumer goods whose use is related to environmental damage; and environment-related provisions in other taxes. A survey of environment taxes in 42 countries--drawn from developing countries, economies in transition, and industrial countries--illustrates that the use of environment taxes differs dramatically from the recommendations of environment tax theory. This divergence between the theory and practice of environment taxes can be attributed to several factors; environment taxes are difficult to implement, there are many factors that impede their effectiveness, and their introduction may be discouraged by their implications for other policy objectives.
Download or read book Green Taxation in Question written by C. Daugbjerg and published by Springer. This book was released on 2001-10-16 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental economists have in general paid little or no attention to the political context within which green taxation would be introduced. In order to understand the real-life politics of green taxation, it is necessary to establish which political constraints determine the actual design of green taxes. Daugbjerg and Svendsen identify rent-seeking, party politics, and policy networks as the three main constraints in environmental regulation. This analysis forms the basis of policy recommendations on the future design of green taxation and international permit trading. Even though these policy recommendations are second best in strict economic terms, they are the best economic designs given that they must be politically feasible.
