Living with Global Imbalances: A Contrarian View
TL;DR: The authors suggests that Americans save quite enough for future generations, that the startlingly large US current account deficit is not only sustainable but a natural feature of today's highly globalized economy, and that a revaluation of the Chinese currency, far from alleviating global imbalances, would run the risk of precipitating a financial crisis.

Post-Kyoto International Climate Policy: The case for charges on greenhouse gas emissions
TL;DR: Cooper as discussed by the authors proposed a global charge on all emissions of greenhouse gases, which would be internationally adjusted from time to time, and each country would collect and keep the revenue it generated, and discussed the motivation for such a proposal, how it would be implemented, its likely economic effects, the relationship to energy security, the possibility of mixing an emission charge with other schemes to limit emissions, especially “cap-and-trade” schemes, and the negotiability of such an agreement.

The Kyoto Protocol: A Flawed Concept
