Edited by Peter Cramton, David JC MacKay, Axel Ockenfels and Steven Stoft
May 2017, MIT Press
In 2017, with a couple of colleagues, I published an edited book, with MIT Press, on international climate policy: Global Carbon Pricing: The Path to Climate Cooperation. I organized the project. But, except for David Mackay, Chief Scientific Adviser to the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change (where I was consulting), Axel Ockenfels and Peter Cramton made the contacts with the big names, including three Nobel economists, Stiglitz, Nordhaus, and Tirole. I wrote the preface and Chapter 4, which summarizes the book’s main points. Axel’s Center for Social and Economic Behavior (at U. of Cologne) paid to make the PDF of the book available free of charge.
