Climate Coalitions in an Integrated Assessment Model
نویسنده
چکیده
An analytically tractable approximation of a numerical model is used to investigate coalition formation between nine major world regions with regard to their policies for greenhouse gas emission reduction. Full cooperation is not individually rational. Assuming non-transferable utility, side payments do not ensure full cooperation either. Without side payments, the largest stable coalitions are small and consist of similar regions. With side payments, the largest stable coalitions exclude either the main culprits or the main victims of climate change. In all cases, optimal emission control is modest.

Climate change is a complicated issue with many factors playing role in its formation and distribution. Considering this complication, a comprehensive and holistic approach is needed for a better understanding and management of those factors. The causal frameworks are among systemic and integrated methods for addressing the causes of environmental problems and the relationships that exist betwe...

This paper evaluates with numbers the respective merits of two competing notions of coalition stability in the standard global public goods model as customarily applied to the climate change problem. To this effect it uses an the integrated assessment CWS model. After a reminder of the two game theoretical stability notions involved – namely, core-stability and internal-external stability – and...
متن کاملTransferable and non transferable utility implementations of coalitional stability in integrated assessment models
To study the stability of coalitions in the standard game theoretic model of international environmental agreements, two alternative concepts are used: potential internal stability and core stability. Both concepts make use of the possibility of reallocating payoffs within a coalition through transfers, formulated in terms of transferable utility among the players. For international application...
متن کاملMeasures to Enhance the Success of Global Climate Treaties*
We analyze important forces that hamper the formation of successful self-enforcing agreements to mitigate global warming. The analysis combines two modules: a) an integrated assessment model that captures the feedback between the economy, environmental damages and the climate system and b) a game theoretic model that determines stable coalitions in the presence of free-riding incentives. We con...
