This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fair and efficient pricing has become increasingly important in international environmental and transport policy. Thus the valuation and internalization of social costs is now a crucial element within strategies towards sustainable mobility. The book provides methods and results from major European and American studies evaluating both social costs of transport and first experiences with their internalization in different contexts: infrastructure planning, urban road pricing and highway tolling. Additionally, complementary non-monetary instruments for a transition towards sustainable mobility are presented and discussed.

Book Synopsis Transport, Welfare and Externalities by : Dieter Schmidtchen
Download or read book Transport, Welfare and Externalities written by Dieter Schmidtchen and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a lawyer who has for many years been working on the interface between law and economics, I have observed with impatience the increasing divergence between academic economics and governmental policy-making. Too often economists are too obsessed with the mathematical modelling of their ideas and insufficiently concerned with the applications. This book constitutes a major and refreshing exception to that trend. Dieter Schmidtchen and his colleagues at Saarbrücken have addressed some issues of European transport policy by re-examining the fundamental ideas on which current analysis appears to be based and finding them wanting because they take too narrow a view on the options available. From the foreword by Anthony Ogus, University of Manchester, UK An excellent and comprehensive book of both theory and application for the Cheapest Cost Avoider principle (CCAP), being better for the society s welfare than the commonly applied Polluters Pay Principle for dealing with transport external impacts. It is easily readable although scientifically rigorous with useful examples. The relation to the European Transport Policy is quite valuable. The book deserves a prominent place in the literature of applied transport economics, and I highly recommend it for students following these disciplines. Dimitrios A. Tsamboulas, National Technical University of Athens, Greece This book discusses for the first time the relevance of the economic analysis of law for transport policy. The difference between applying the polluter-pays-principle and Calabresi s notion of the cheapest cost avoider are clearly explained and distributional consequences are also considered. Moreover, in addition to a brilliant economic analysis, the book also discusses important cases and the consequences of their analysis for European transport policy. It is a must-read for anyone interested either in law and economics generally or transport policy in particular. Michael Faure, Maastricht University and Erasmus University Rotterdam, The Netherlands This book discusses a paradigm shift for dealing with the internalization of external costs in transport. Crucial to the analysis is the insight that the polluters are not the only cost drivers; both pollutees and the state can also contribute to reducing social costs. The authors show that applying the Cheapest Cost Avoider Principle (CCAP) instead of the Polluter Pays Principle (PPP) can lead to substantial welfare improvements. This book develops the foundations for the CCAP, which is shown to be superior to the PPP, both methodologically and practically, in identifying the most appropriate policy for dealing with external effects in transport. The PPP neglects the fact that external costs are jointly caused by all involved parties and that the externality problem is of a reciprocal nature: to avoid harm to a pollutee necessarily inflicts harm on the polluter. The real problem for welfare maximization addressed by the CCAP is to avoid the most serious harm. The CCAP guarantees efficiency, fair competition and equity. Its use of some form of cost benefit analysis also helps to avoid regulatory failure. The CCAP incorporates polluter pays as one possible outcome; however, this is not a foregone conclusion. Two case studies showing that the methodology of the CCAP can be applied in practice and a critical assessment of the European greening transport policy complete this volume. Discussing the relevance of the economic analysis of law for transport policy, this book will appeal to academics in the fields of law and economics, environmental policy and regulatory impact assessment, and European transport policy. Policymakers and civil servants concerned with transport policy, environmental policy and regulatory impact assessment will also find this book valuable.

Book Synopsis Environmental External Costs of Transport by : Peter Bickel
Download or read book Environmental External Costs of Transport written by Peter Bickel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transport is very important for the economy and our welfare. However, transport also causes a lot of problems, including air pollution. Such problems should be taken into account, when making decisions. A prerequisite for doing so is, that the impacts are known, quantitatively measured and allocated to the different activities in transport. Furthermore, they should be transformed into monetary units to be used as a basis for cost-benefit analyses or as an aid for setting taxes and charges, that reflect the external costs. This book describes a methodology for calculating impacts of transport activities and external costs caused by air pollution and presents numerous applications of this methodology for different transport technologies, locations and policy case studies. The approach has been developed and results have been calculated within the research project 'ExternE Core/Transport', financed to a large extent by the European Commission, Directorate General Research. We would like to thank especially Pierre Vallette and Pekka Jarviletho from the EC for their advice and support. A considerable number of experts with expertise in the different disciplines of this highly interdisciplinary work contributed to this book. The editors would like to thank the authors (see list on p. XV) for their contributions; it is especially remarkable, that the authors helped to make this book an integrated whole instead of a number of independent contributions.

Book Synopsis 16th International Symposium on Theory and Practice in Transport Economics by : European Conference of Ministers of Transport
Download or read book 16th International Symposium on Theory and Practice in Transport Economics written by European Conference of Ministers of Transport and published by ECMT Publications (European Conference of Ministers of Transport). This book was released on 2005 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 300 experts meeting in Budapest sketched a broad overview of transport economics research since the inception of the ECMT in 1953 and mapped out the direction for future work. Does investment in infrastructure contribute to economic growth? Is it possible to influence modal split? How does the competition principle apply in the transport sector? Do we have to have a supra-national regulatory authority? Which charging system should be applied? Is environmental sustainability the privilege of the public transport sector? These urgent questions and other equally fundamental issues are addressed in this publication, which contains the 22 introductory reports to the discussions at the Symposium and a summary of the discussions themselves, delivering the very latest thinking on the contribution of research to transport policy formulation. In this publication readers will find stimulating input for discussions on key current themes in transport economics.
Book Synopsis European Transport by : Theo Kiriazids
Download or read book European Transport written by Theo Kiriazids and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1994, this volume responds to a key debate in the European Community, extant since the signing of the Single European Act (SEA) in 1986, in exploring the role of transportation in the creation of a Common Market with free movement of goods, people, capital and services. Critical of the EC’s compromise on transport between economic principles and political realities, this book seeks to address issues of international cooperation, lack of common approach and differences in national law and political systems along with the question of finance. Theo Kiriazidis responds to the EC’s argument on each transport sector in turn and examines how the existing transport system in 1994 could be better managed.
Book Synopsis The Liberalization of Transportation Services in the EU and Turkey by : Sübidey Togan
Download or read book The Liberalization of Transportation Services in the EU and Turkey written by Sübidey Togan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transport costs have been, and still are, an important component of trade costs, which are one the major determinants of the volume of trade, and thus of gross domestic product (GDP) and GDP growth. Studies show that two of the main determinants of transport costs are regulatory frameworks in transport sectors and transport infrastructure. The productivity and competitiveness of goods and services firms depends largely on access to low-cost and high-quality transport services, and those services have a powerful influence on economic growth. Countries commit themselves to increasing the efficiency of transport services, which can largely be achieved through increased competition and hence through liberalization of transport sectors. Since barriers to trade in transport services are typically regulatory in nature, this book provides a thorough discussion of international, regional, and country specific rules and regulations in those sectors. Concentrating on the EU, and Turkey in particular, it considers rules and regulations in transport sectors. It shows that economic liberalization pursued unilaterally, multilaterally, or regionally has beneficial effects for Turkey, and that the benefits from such liberalization are substantial. Furthermore, the volume shows that transport infrastructure is an important determinant of exports, and hence GDP and GDP growth.
Book Synopsis Analytical Transport Economics by : J. B. Polak
Download or read book Analytical Transport Economics written by J. B. Polak and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a considerably revised version of the 1993 European Transport Economics, economists from across Europe, the US, and Chile critically examine and summarize the scope of transport economics, then analyze in detail the production of transport, travel demand, transport externalities, and transport markets. They also examine transport policy both regarding infrastructure and transport markets, paying special attention to the role of government after deregulation and to the transport policy of the European Union, and analyze transport infrastructure in view of its effects on the wider economy. Finally they explore the role of transport specifically in urban environments, transition economies, and developing countries. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR
