Pigouvian Taxes: A Strategic Approach
This paper analyzes the problem of designing mechanisms to implement efficient solutions in economies with externalities. We provide two simple mechanisms implementing the Pigouvian Social Choice Correspondence in environments in which coalitions can or cannot be formed.
متن کامل1 On Pigouvian Taxes and Implementability : Information , Monitoring and Efficiency
Standard microeconomic theory proves that, when a externality occurs, the solution of the social cost problem requires that the producers face an additional cost identical to the marginal damage caused by them at the efficient level of the externality. Pigouvian taxes, and adequately designed property rights markets, are both political instruments to put this theory into practice. Nevertheless,...
متن کاملMisinterpretation of the Shuttleworth equation
It has been argued for sixty years that there exists a relation between surface tension and surface energy on an unstrained solid as given by the Shuttleworth equation. It is shown here that the Shuttleworth equation reduces to the definition of surface tension derived from mechanics. Therefore, it provides no additional relation to the physics of surfaces. This derivation also reveals precisel...
متن کاملThe Misinterpretation of Passive Sentences
2 Abstract A fundamental task of the language comprehension system is to assign thematic roles to concepts in sentences and then maintain them. The comprehension system has access to two sources of information for thematic roles: one is the syntactic structure, and the other is information in long-term memory. In a sentence such as the dog was bitten by the man, the syntactic source specifies t...
متن کاملThe misinterpretation of noncanonical sentences.
Research on language comprehension has focused on the resolution of syntactic ambiguities, and most studies have employed garden-path sentences to determine the system's preferences and to assess its use of nonsyntactic sources information. A topic that has been neglected is how syntactically challenging but essentially unambiguous sentences are processed, including passives and object-clefts--...
