Outline of Final Research Achievements

We publish two papers in international academic journals. One paper addresses the sustainability and stability problems of partial tax coordination among regional or national sovereign governments that aim to maximize tax revenues in a repeated game setting. This paper shows that partial tax coordination is more likely to prevail either if the number of countries in a coalition subgroup is smaller or if the number of existing countries in the entire economy is large. The other paper explores an optimal environmental tax policy in a three-stage game in which polluting firms strategically choose the location of their plants. We show not only that the optimal emission tax is non-decreasing with the declining cost of relocation but also that the firms may move back their relocated plants to the home country.
