Demystifying the environmental Kuznets curve: turning a black box into a policy tool

Theodore Panayotou · 1 Nov 1997

The reduced-form approach to the income–environment relationship has been a useful first step towards answering the question of how economic growth affects the environment. However, without an explicit consideration of the underlying determinants of environmental quality, the scope for policy intervention is unduly circumscribed. In this paper a modest attempt is made to incorporate explicit…

The environmental Kuznets curve: an empirical analysis

Matthew Cole, A. J. Rayner, John M. Bates · 1 Nov 1997

This paper examines the relationship between per capita income and a wide range of environmental indicators using cross-country panel sets. The manner in which this has been done overcomes several of the weaknesses asscociated with the estimation of environmental Kuznets curves (EKCs). outlined by Stern et al. (1996). Results suggest that meaningful EKCs exist only…

Social-ecological systems as complex adaptive systems: modeling and policy implications

Simon A. Levin, Tasos Xepapadeas, Anne‐Sophie Crépin et al. · 27 Nov 2012

Abstract Systems linking people and nature, known as social-ecological systems, are increasingly understood as complex adaptive systems. Essential features of these complex adaptive systems – such as nonlinear feedbacks, strategic interactions, individual and spatial heterogeneity, and varying time scales – pose substantial challenges for modeling. However, ignoring these characteristics can distort our picture of how…

The distributional impact of climate change on rich and poor countries

Robert Mendelsohn, Ariel Dinar, Larry J. Williams · 22 Mar 2006

This paper examines the impact of climate change on rich and poor countries across the world. We measure two indices of the relative impact of climate across countries, impact per capita, and impact per GDP. These measures sum market impacts across the climate-sensitive economic sectors of each country. Both indices reveal that climate change will…

Progress on the environmental Kuznets curve?

David I. Stern · 1 May 1998

The environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis proposes that there is an inverted U-shape relation between environmental degradation and income per capita. This has been taken to imply that economic growth will eventually redress the environmental impacts of the early stages of economic development. The literature on this issue has developed rapidly over the last few…
