| Description: |
This pathbreaking study illustrates and enhances the potential of cost - benefit analysis as a tool for decision-making. |
| Synopsis: |
This pathbreaking study illustrates and enhances the potential of cost-benefit analysis as a tool for decision-making.Advancing the incorporation of equity preferences in policy analysis, the authors demonstrate the application of choice modelling to the estimation of distributional weights suitable for inclusion in a cost-benefit analytical framework. A platform for discussion of the challenges and opportunities of this approach is presented in the form of a detailed case study designed to estimate community preferences for different intergenerational distributions. While the case study is focused on natural resource management and environmental policy, the conceptual and methodological advances illustrated by the authors are relevant and applicable to a wider array of policy deliberations.This book will prove a challenging and thought-provoking read for academics, students and policymakers with an interest in environmental issues and/or public sector economics. |
