  • The Animal-Welfare Levy

    Open AccessRicardo Espinosa, Romain Espinosa et al.ARTICLEJournal of the European Economic…2025

    We provide a nonanthropocentric rationale for implementing a levy on meat consumption due to animal-welfare considerations. It operates as a Pigouvian tax and addresses externalities on farmed animals. Under total utilitarianism, the levy is a subsidy when an animal’s life is worth living, and a tax when it is not. The levy varies under alternative normative settings, illustrating the importance of population-ethics issues for the pricing of exte…

    Open AccessMark Budolfson, Ricardo Espinosa et al.ARTICLEJournal of Benefit-Cost Analysis2024References: 6

    Animal welfare is often ignored in decision-making, despite widespread agreement about its importance. This is partly because of a lack of quantitative methods to assess the impacts of policies on humans and nonhumans alike on a common scale. At the same time, recent work in economics, philosophy, and animal welfare science has made progress on the fundamental theoretical challenge of estimating the well-being potential of different species on a …

  • Les approches économiques de la précaution

    Open AccessChristian Gollier, Nicolas TreichARTICLENatures Sciences Sociétés2014

    Le principe de précaution est très populaire aujourd’hui. Mais a-t-il un fondement économique ? Nous présentons deux théories économiques de la précaution. La première se base sur le cadre classique d’espérance d’utilité avec révision bayésienne des croyances. La seconde se fonde sur l’aversion à l’ambiguïté. Nous discutons l’intérêt, mais aussi les limites de ces deux approches.

  • Regulation in Happyville

    Open AccessFrançois Salanié, Nicolas TreichARTICLEThe Economic Journal2009Cited by: 9References: 24

    How does risk perception affect risk regulation? Happyville is a society in which citizens wrongly believe that the drinking water supply is contaminated. We discuss conditions under which a benevolent Director of Environment Protection would invest in a water cleanup technology. This holds if the Director is populist, namely if he maximises social welfare based on citizens' pessimistic beliefs. More surprisingly, investment in the water cleanup …

  • Learning and climate change

    Brian C O''Neill, Paul Crutzen et al.ARTICLEClimate Policy2006

    Learning – i.e., the acquisition of new information that leads to changes in our assessment of uncertainty – plays a prominent role in the international climate policy debate. For example, the view that we should postpone actions until we know more continues to be influential. The latest work on learning and climate change includes new theoretical models, better informed simulations of how learning affects the optimal timing of emissions reductio…

    Open AccessChristian Gollier, Nicolas TreichARTICLENatures Sciences Sociétés2006

    La plupart des progres technologiques apportent des promesses de benefices et s’accompagnent de spectres de dangers. Ces dangers sont-ils acceptables au regard des benefices anticipes ? A l’image de ce qu’il en est pour les OGM, les perceptions de ces benefices et de ces dangers varient sensiblement au sein d’une meme population, ce qui conduit aux debats publics que nous connaissons a leur sujet en France. De plus, le sentiment prevaut que les d…
