New Directions in Productivity Measurement and Efficiency Analysis

Edited by Tiho Ancev, M. A.S. Azad and Francesc Hernández-Sancho

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This book explores novel research perspectives on the intersection of environmental/natural resource economics and productivity analysis, emphasizing the link between productivity and efficiency measurement and environmental impacts. The purpose of the book is to present new approaches and methods for measuring environmentally adjusted productivity and efficiency, and for incorporating natural resources in standard national accounting practices. These methods are applicable in many contexts, including air and water pollution, climate change, green accounting, and environmental regulation
