Econometric Models to Evaluate Environmental and Spatial Effects of Long-Lasting Policies
Policies often target one market: road taxes target commuting, agricultural subsidies target farming, and car taxes target the automobile market. Economists developed a rich toolbox to evaluate the effects of policy in the targeted market in a partial equilibrium analysis. However, policies are often long-lasting and massive in scale, affecting where economic activity occurs. The spatial distribution of activity matters in agriculture and transport because of the environmental externalities of land use, congestion, and pollution. This proposal presents an econometric methodology to study the interaction between policy and the spatial distribution of economic activity. The proposal presents…
