We assessed the influence of the Fukushima nuclear accident (FNA) on the Chinese public’s attitude and acceptance of nuclear power plants in China. Two surveys (before and after the FNA) were administered to separate subsamples of residents near the Tianwan nuclear power plant in Lianyungang, China...

Nous étudions une économie dans laquelle un bien final est produit grâce à deux secteurs. L'un utilise une ressource non-renouvelable et polluante, l'autre une ressource renouvelable et propre. A chacune est associé un type de recherche spécifique. Les pouvoirs publics prélèvent une taxe carbone et...

Estimation of support frontiers and boundaries often involves monotone and/or concave edge data smoothing. This estimation problem arises in various unrelated contexts, such as optimal cost and production assessments in econometrics and master curve prediction in the reliability programs of nuclear...

We study how rich shareholders can use their economic power to deregulate firms that they own, thus skewing the income distribution towards themselves. Agents differ in productivity and choose how much labor to supply. High productivity agents also own shares in the productive sector and thus earn...

Stated preference (SP) surveys attempt to obtain monetary values for non-market goods that reflect individuals’ “true” preferences. Numerous empirical studies suggest that monetary values from SP studies are sensitive to survey design and so may not reflect respondents’ true preferences. This study...

We study the influence of a bandwidth parameter in inference with conditional estimating equations. In that aim, we propose a new class of smooth minimum distance estimators and we develop a theory that focuses on uniformity in bandwidth. We establish a vn-asymptotic representation of our estimator...

We study a dynamic carbon pollution model where carbon accumulates both inside a nonrenewable and a renewable reservoir with a constant regeneration rate. Two primary energy sources are available: a cheap exhaustible fossil fuel (coal) and an expensive clean energy alternative (solar). To avoid...
