| Research Abstract |
In this research, we aimed to examine the two concepts, "sustainability" and "intergenerational equity". First, we gave foundations of the analysis of intergenerational equity by extending the framework of social choice theory : we clarified difficulties of collective decisions on intergenerational problems, and discussed fair allocation rules. Next, we investigated economic implications of policies for sustainable development, such as environmental tax. Moreover, we discussed mechanism design problems.
