Carbon pricing in climate policy: seven reasons, complementary instruments, and political economy considerations
Andrea Baranzini,Jeroen C.J.M. van den Bergh,Stefano Carattini,Richard B. Howarth,Emilio Padilla,Jordi Roca +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the main arguments for carbon pricing are presented to stimulate a fair and well-informed discussion about it, and the discussion goes beyond traditional arguments from environmental economics by including relevant insights from energy research and innovation studies as well.

A survey of the literature on environmental innovation based on main path analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify the main directions in which the literature on EI has developed over time and use two algorithms to analyze a citation network of journal articles and books.

Environmental Regulation and Productivity: New Findings on the Porter Hypothesis
TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical analysis of the relationship between the stringency of environmental regulation and total factor productivity (TFP) growth in the Quebec manufacturing sector is provided, and the authors argue that the hypothesis is more relevant for sectors which are more exposed to international competition.

Subglobal carbon policy and the competitive selection of heterogeneous firms
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyze subglobal action to mitigate climate change with a consideration of recent advances in the theory of international trade and find significant quantitative and qualitative differences when they consider the Melitz trade structure.

Asymmetric industrial energy prices and international trade
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the response of bilateral trade flows to differences in industrial energy prices across countries and found that changes in relative energy prices have a statistically significant but very small impact on imports.
