Australasian environmental economics: contributions, conflicts and ‘cop-outs’*
نویسندگان
چکیده
Australian and New Zealand environmental economists have played a significant role in the development of concepts and their application across three fields within their subdiscipline: non-market valuation, institutional economics and bioeconomic modelling. These contributions have been spurred on by debates within and outside the discipline. Much of the controversy has centred on the validity of valuations generated through the application of stated preference methods such as contingent valuation. Suggestions to overcome some shortcomings in the work of environmental economists include the commissioning of a sequence of non-market valuation studies to fill existing gaps to improve the potential for benefit transfer.

متن کاملEdge contraction and cop-win critical graphs
The problem is to determine the number of ‘cops’ needed to capture a ‘robber’ where the game is played with perfect information, the different sides moving alternately. The cops capture the robber when one of them occupies the same vertex as the robber at any time in the game. A copwin graph is one in which one cop can always capture the robber. A graph is cop-win edge-critical with respect to ...
متن کاملWhen does a random graph have constant cop number?
In this paper, we study the vertex pursuit game of Cops and Robbers where cops try to capture a robber loose on the vertices of a graph. The minimum number of cops required to win on a given graph G is the cop number of G. We present asymptotic results for the game of Cops and Robbers played on a random graph G(n, p) focusing on the case when the cop number does not grow with the size of a grap...
متن کاملMethodological Shortcomings in Classical Mathematical Economics: A Critical Examination of the Contributions of Cournot, Jevons and Walras
This paper examines critically the contributions of Cournot, Jevons and Walras as the founders of classical mathematical economics from a methodological standpoint. Advances in different economic schools and doctrines in the 19th century produced an environment of multi-dimensionality in economic analysis which was regarded by the pioneers of classical mathematical economists as a chaotic state...

One of the serious challenges regarding interactions between Iran’s social security system and health system is basic health insurance stewardship. It has existed for a long time and has been given a special place concerning the related laws and policies in recent years. In this regard, it seems that approving of rules conflicting with upstream laws and policies has increased existing conflicts...
