A Core-Theoretic Solution for the Design of Cooperative Agreements on Transfrontier Pollution
Creators
Abstract
The paper highlights the relevance of the game theoretic concept of the core of a cooperative game for the design of international treaties on transfrontier pollution. Specifically, a formula is offered for allocating abatement costs between the countries involved for which the justification is of core-theoretic nature. The analysis emphasizes the strategic role of monetary transfers among the countries.
