Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have examined the effectiveness of matching agreements and environmenral R&D agreements, which seem to be promising schemes of international environmenral agrements. In a paper on the matching agreement, we gave an interpretation of mathing mecahanism in the framework of voluntary provision of public goods, and pointed out the equivalence of the tax-subsidy policies for pollution control and the matching rules. In a paper on the environmenral R&D agreement, we proposed a simpler agreement rule than one in a previous work and showed that it would work more effectively. In another paper, we showed that under an assumption of technology with increasing returns, when the noncooperative equilibrium without agreement is inefficient, R&D agreements always lead to the better situation.
