This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The article analyzes the impact of public environmental protection expenditure on economic growth. Estimating the strength of this relationship is of particular importance in the context of the recent global economic crisis. The paper is organized as follows. Firstly, theoretical model showing the mechanism of public environmental protection expenditure impact on GDP is presented. Then the results of an empirical study are shown. The study is conducted for the eleven countries of Central Europe. Econometric panel model is applied, which takes into account both time and cross-sectional dimension of the analyzed phenomenon, because, as indicated in the article, relying only on the variation over time may lead to misleading conclusions. The estimations based on panel model, conducted for the years 2001-2012, shows that the increase in public environmental protection expenditure has a positive effect on economic growth. Due to the fact that the analyzed period is heterogeneous, that is it covers both the period before the global economic crisis, and during its lifetime, calculations were also performed for two sub-periods. Results reveal that public environmental protection expenditure has stronger influence on GDP during crisis. Hence, the study shows that public environmental protection expenditure have no negative impact on economic growth, and its positive effects are strongest in case of economies affected by the global financial crisis.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 'environmental revolution' began in the late 1960s, economists have done a lot of work in the field of economic theory-building on the preservation of nature. Meanwhile, environmental economic literature has swelled to a large stream of articles in journals of different signature. As a result, a coherent economic view of the phenomenon ofenvironmental degradation has emerged. Several kinds of 'green' public policies and their impacts on both nature and the performance of the economy have been analysed. The feasibility ofspecific types of policy has also been discussed. The aim of the book is to provide an insight into the ways economists analyse the problems ofenvironmental pollution and the depletion ofnatural resource. To this purpose a number of articles have been selected. Some of them have a fundamental character, others an applied nature and are foremost, practically oriented. The presentation of the collection emphasizes our belief that economists are able to deliver an essential contribution to the design of policies to protect nature. It is clear that 'nature' and 'environment' may no longer be regarded as 'free gifts' to society. Rather, they have to be seen as scarce resources, and environmental disruption and resource depletion as allocation problems. Ifa natural resource is scarce, a price must be charged in accordance with the degree ofscarcity since otherwise society will be confronted with misallocations. In this connection there are two topics which are of particular interest to economists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employing analytical tools borrowed from game theory, Carles Boix offers a complete theory of political transitions, in which political regimes ultimately hinge on the nature of economic assets, their distribution among individuals, and the balance of power among different social groups. Backed up by detailed historical work and extensive statistical analysis that goes back to the mid-nineteenth century, this book explains, among many other things, why democracy emerged in classical Athens. It also discusses the early triumph of democracy in both nineteenth-century agrarian Norway, Switzerland and northeastern America and the failure in countries with a powerful landowning class.

Book excerpt: Featuring an original introduction by the editors, this important collection of essays explores the main issues surrounding the regulation of the environment. The expert contributors illustrate that regulating the environment in the UK is conceptually complex, involves a diverse range of institutions, techniques and methodologies and crosses geographical and national boundaries. In the USA it is more formalised, juridical, adversarial and formally dependent upon legal rules. The articles highlight the fact that despite differences in the UK and the USA's regulatory styles, environmental regulation today has much in common with both traditions.
