Here, we explore household-level consumption data to illustrate the distribution of carbon footprints and consumption within 26 European Union countries, regions and social groups. The analysis further sheds light on the relationships between carbon footprints and socially desirable outcomes such as income, equality, education, nutrition, sanitation, employment and adequate living conditions. , Technical summary We need a good understanding of household carbon distributions in order to design equitable carbon policy. In this work, we analyse household-level consumer expenditure from 26 European Union (EU) countries and link it with greenhouse gas (GHG) intensities from the multiregional input–output database EXIOBASE. We show carbon footprint distributions and elasticities by country, region and socio-economic group in the context of per capita climate targets. The top 10% of the population with the highest carbon footprints per capita account for 27% of the EU carbon footprint, a higher contribution to that of the bottom 50% of the population. The top 1% of EU households have a carbon footprint of 55 tCO 2 eq/cap. The most significant contribution is from air and land transport, with 41% and 21% among the top 1% of EU households. Air transport has a rising elasticity coefficient across EU expenditure quintiles, making it the most elastic, unequal and carbon-intensive consumption category in this study. Only 5% of EU households live within climate targets, with carbon footprints below 2.5 tCO 2 eq/cap. Our analysis points to the possibility of mitigating climate change while achieving various well-being outcomes. Further attention is needed to limit trade-offs between climate change mitigation and socially desirable outcomes. , Social media summary EU top 1% of households emit 22 times the per capita climate targets. Only 5% of EU households live within the targets. DA - 2020/// PY - 2020 DO - 10.1017/sus.2020.12 DP - DOI.org (Crossref) VL - 3 SP - e18 J2 - Glob. Sustain.

Based on historical examples of the conflict relations between trade unions and environmental groups in the Austrian energy sector, this paper showcases how the relationship between the two groups has changed from enmity to first attempts at alliance building. Drawing from analysis of union documents and problem-centred interviews conducted with Austrian unionists, it shows that newly emerging alliances between unions and environmental movements contain the seeds for a broad societal movement that can help overcome the paradigm of growth and actively engage in the creation of policies that support a social–ecological transformation.

Our scenarios focus on non-ETS CO2 emissions and comprise different tax rates and revenue recycling options (lower labor taxes, lower VAT and lump sum payments). The short-term comparative scenario analysis indicates that CO2 taxes without recycling lead to significant CO2 emission reductions at moderate economic costs. Equity impacts on households depend on the indicator used but can be regressive without recycling. Most recycling schemes can achieve a double dividend, i.e. emission reductions and increases in GDP. Lump sum payments are less efficient than reducing the VAT or labor taxes. Equity impacts are progressive with lump sum payments, rather proportional with lower VAT and regressive with lower labor taxes. A combination of recycling schemes and/or a restriction of lump sum payments to lower income households can minimize the trade-off between equity and efficiency. Our simulations suggest that well-designed CO2 tax schemes could be a crucial and socially acceptable element within a comprehensive policy package to achieve GHG emission targets for non-ETS sectors in Austria.

The optimal top tax rate increases when there are zero-sum compensation-bargaining effects. We present empirical evidence consistent with bargaining effects. Top tax rate cuts are associated with top one percent pretax income shares increases but not higher economic growth. US CEO “pay for luck” is quantitatively more prevalent when top tax rates are low. International CEO pay levels are negatively correlated with top tax rates, even controlling for firms' characteristics and performance.

In Capital in the Twenty-First Century, Thomas Piketty analyzes a unique collection of data from twenty countries, ranging as far back as the eighteenth century, to uncover key economic and social patterns.

Allerdings ist die klimapolitische Maßnahme auch umstritten, da sie angeblich Personen mit niedrigem Einkommen zu stark belastet. Das Schweizer Modell zeigt, dass Geringverdienende von einer CO 2 -Abgabe profitieren ‐ dank Rückerstattung.A carbon tax is an effective instrument for reducing industrial and household carbon emissions. Some, however, put forward the objection that taxing CO 2 is a greater burden for lower-class households than for affluent household. Revenue redistribution to taxpayers compensates for the negative distributional effects of a carbon tax. In 2008, Switzerland introduced a CO 2 levy on heating-related fossil fuel use. The levy was raised to 96 Swiss francs (87 Euro) per ton CO 2 . Two thirds of the revenues are redistributed to residents while one third is spent on building renovations and technological innovations. In the current study, we investigated the distributional effects of a hypothetical CO 2 levy with redistribution on all products and services. We calculated individual carbon footprints based on survey data from Swiss households. As expected, the carbon footprint distribution was strongly skewed to the right. We report correlations of carbon footprints with income and estimate the proportion of the population that stands to gain from a CO 2 levy with redistribution. The results show that, in addition to mitigating climate change, this policy will prove beneficial for a large majority of the population.

AU - Zandonella, Martina T2 - Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft - WuG AB - Wahlen sind ein Kernelement jeder Demokratie, und eine über möglichst alle gesellschaftlichen Gruppen hinweg verteilte Partizipation ist zentral für die Gerechtigkeit in demokratischen Systemen. Wenn sich bestimmte Gruppen systematisch nicht beteiligen, spiegeln sich auch ihre Bedürfnisse und Interessen seltener in den politischen Entscheidungen wider. Ausgehend von den bestehenden Erkenntnissen zu den sozialen Auswirkungen von Einkommensungleichheit untersucht die vorliegende Studie mögliche Einflüsse von lokaler Einkommensungleichheit auf die Wahlbeteiligung. Dazu werden erstmalig die nun auch auf Gemeindeebene verfügbaren Indikatoren zu Ungleichheit herangezogen und mit den Umfragedaten der Wahltagsbefragung zur Nationalratswahl 2013 verknüpft. Ergänzt wird das Modell zur Erklärung von Nichtwählen mit einigen ausgewählten, aus der Partizipationsforschung bekannten Einflussfaktoren auf der individuellen Ebene. Die Ergebnisse geben erste Hinweise darauf, dass zunehmende Ungleichheit auf Gemeindeebene die Wahlbeteiligung senkt. Dies geschieht indirekt über die höhere Wahrscheinlichkeit, von Exklusionserfahrungen betroffen zu sein und einem damit einhergehenden, geringeren Vertrauen in die Wirksamkeit von Partizipation. Schließlich werden Vorschläge für eine Fortsetzung der wissenschaftlichen Auseinandersetzung mit dem vorliegenden Thema aufgezeigt.

This applies to the mitigation of climate change, in particular when federal governments (as in the U.S.) are inactive. More recently, federalism is also expected to empower sub-national actors in adapting to local impacts of climate change. The present paper analyses the role federalism in Austria played in greening the decentralised building sector (relevant for mitigation) on the one hand, and in improving regional flood risk management (relevant for adaptation) on the other. In line with the so-called matching school of the environmental federalism research strand we conclude that Austrian federalism proved to be more appropriate for regional flood protection than for mitigating climate change. We highlight that it is not federalism per se but federalism embedded in various contextual factors that shape environmental policy-making. Among these factors are the spatial scale of an environmental problem, the nitty-gritty of polity systems, and national politics (such as federal positions on climate change mitigation).

The impact of political parties on environmental policy outputs in 18 OECD countries, 1970–2000 AU - Knill, Christoph AU - Debus, Marc AU - Heichel, Stephan T2 - European Journal of Political Research AB - This article analyses the extent to which national policies in the highly internationalised environmental sector are influenced by the policy preferences of political parties. The focus is on policy outputs rather than environmental performance as the central indicator of policy change. Based on a discussion of the relevant theoretical literature competing hypotheses are presented. For an empirical test, a dataset is used that includes information on the number of environmental policies adopted in 18 OECD countries at four points in time between 1970 and 2000. The results show that not only international integration, economic development and problem pressure, but also aspects of party politics, influence the number of policies adopted. The number of environmental measures increases if the governmental parties adopt more pro-environmentalist policy positions. This effect remains robust even when controlling for the institutional strength of governments, the left-right position of parties in government, the inclusion of an ecological or left-libertarian party inside the (coalition) government, and the presence of a portfolio that deals exclusively with environmental issues.

These undemocratic mechanisms produce severe environmental harm because they provide elites with the means to achieve goals that are often environmentally destructive and because they are sometimes environmentally destructive in and of themselves, as is the case with military power. After situating their study in the broader literature, the authors describe their theoretical model in detail and present three case studies that identify some of the most important mechanisms through which elites exert power and harm the environment.

Wovon hängt ein niedriger oder hoher Umweltverbrauch ab? Welche Rolle spielen verschiedene Umwelteinstellungen? Welche Rolle das Einkommen? Der Bericht liefert Antworten auf diese Fragen. Mittels einer Repräsentativbefragung von gut 1.000 Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmern aus ganz Deutschland wurden unter anderem Daten und Informationen zu den Bereichen Heizung, Warmwasserverbrauch, Wäschewaschen und -trocknen, Kühlen und Gefrieren, Kochen, Beleuchtung, Geräte der Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik, Alltagsmobilität, Urlaubsreisen, Nahrung, Kleidung, Saunabesuch und Haustierhaltung abgefragt. Themen waren weiterhin eigene Anlagen zur Nutzung erneuerbarer Energien bzw. Beteiligungen an solchen Anlagen und Kompensationszahlungen für CO2-Emissionen. Die gängigen soziodemografischen Daten wurden erhoben und Einstellungen abgefragt, anhand derer eine Zuordnung der Befragten zu sechs sozialen Milieusegmenten möglich war.Die statistischen Analysen bestätigen die Vermutung, dass vor allem das Einkommen einen zentralen Treiber für den Ressourcenverbrauch darstellt. Der Energieverbrauch nimmt mit dem Alter zu, ist bei Männern größer als bei Frauen und sinkt tendenziell mit der Haushaltsgröße. Bemerkenswert ist, dass er in den sozialen Milieusegmenten mit verbreitet positiven Umwelteinstellungen überdurchschnittlich hoch ist. Detaillierte Auswertungen für die einzelnen Energieverbrauchsbereiche ergeben zum Teil sehr komplexe Abhängigkeiten von soziodemografischen Merkmalen und Einstellungen der Befragten.

The short- and long-run effects of income inequality, economic growth and energy consumption on CO2 emissions in the U.S. are examined using the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach. We find that more equitable distribution of income in the U.S. results in better environmental quality in the short- and long-run. It is also found that, in both the short- and long-run, economic growth has a beneficial effect on environmental quality, whereas energy consumption has a detrimental effect on the environment.

Using an arguably superior group fixed effects estimator, we find that the relationship between income inequality and per capita emissions depends on the level of income. We show that for low and middle-income economies, higher income inequality is associated with lower carbon emissions while in upper middle-income and high-income economies, higher income inequality increases per capita emissions. The result is robust to the inclusion of plausible transmission variables.

The ongoing nature of today's environmental crisis also raises questions about inequality's role in environmental deterioration. Despite the large number of papers that have been written on this topic, no theoretical or empirical consensus presently exists. Firstly, our article identifies that authors' conclusions in this area depend on their hypotheses regarding 1) the relationship between individual income and individual environmental pressure, 2) the impact of inequality on the social norms that influence individual environmental pressure, 3) the interests that social groups have in degrading or protecting the environment, 4) how these interests play out in terms of political demands, and 5) how these political demands translate into political decisions. Secondly, the study shows that, despite enabling a general test of the causal relationship between inequality and the environment, the empirical methods utilised do not account for the full range of theoretical mechanisms in play. Hence the suggestion that a research programme be launched to conduct empirical studies of the five aforementioned hypotheses by applying a recursive approach.

Our analysis of evidence on forest commons outcomes in 228 cases from South Asia (India and Nepal), East Africa (Kenya and Uganda) and Latin America (Mexico and Bolivia) suggests that local governance and collective action matter in shaping how socioeconomic inequalities affect forest conditions. In particular, we find that both inter-group and intra-group economic inequalities have consistently negative effects on forest outcomes, but that effectively functioning local institutions for collective action dampen the negative effect of inter-group inequality on forest outcomes.

Data on work hours in ten countries over the period 1963-98 show that greater inequality is indeed associated longer work hours. These 'Veblen effects' are large and the estimates are robust using country fixed effects and other specifications. Because consumption inequality is a public bad, a social welfare optimum cannot be implemented by a flat tax on consumption but may be accomplished by more complicated (progressive) consumption taxes.

AU - Boyce, James T2 - Political Economy Research Institute, University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Working Papers AB - Innovation policy is increasingly informed from the perspective of a national innovation system (NIS), but, despite the fact that research findings emphasize the importance of national differences in the framing conditions for innovation, policy prescriptions tend to be uniform. Justifications for innovation policy by organizations such as the OECD generally relate to notions of market failure, and the USA, with its focus on the commercialization of public sector research and entrepreneurship, is commonly portrayed as the best model for international emulation. In this paper we develop a broad framework for NIS analysis, involving free market, coordination and complex-evolutionary system approaches. We argue that empirical evidence supporting the hypothesis that the ‘free market’ can be relied upon to promote innovation is limited, even in the USA, and the global financial crisis provides us with new opportunities to consider alternatives. The case of Australia is particularly interesting: a successful economy, but one that faces continuing productivity and innovation challenges. Drawing on information and analysis collected for a major review of Australia’s NIS, and the government’s 10-year plan in response to it, we show how the free market trajectory of policy-making of past decades is being extended, complemented and refocused by new approaches to coordination and complex-evolutionary system thinking. These approaches are shown to emphasize the importance of systemic connectivity, evolving institutions and organizational capabilities. Nonetheless, despite the fact that there has been much progress in this direction in the Australian debate, the predominant logic behind policy choices still remains one of addressing market failure, and the primary focus of policy attention continues to be science and research rather than demand-led approaches. We discuss how the development and elaboration of notions of systems failure, rather than just market failure, ca DA - 2007/01/01/ PY - 2007 DO - 10.1016/S0196-1152(07)15008-0 DP - ResearchGate VL - 15 J2 - Political Economy Research Institute, University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Working Papers L1 - files/16359/Boyce_2007_Is Inequality Bad for the Environment.pdf L4 - https://www.researchgate.net/publication/23693669_Is_Inequality_Bad_for_the_Environment ER - TY - JOUR TI - A Polanyi-inspired perspective on social-ecological transformations of cities AU - Bärnthaler, Richard AU - Novy, Andreas AU - Stadelmann, Basil T2 - Journal of Urban Affairs DA - 2020/11/19/ PY - 2020 DO - 10.1080/07352166.2020.1834404 DP - DOI.org (Crossref) SP - 1 EP - 25 J2 - Journal of Urban Affairs LA - en SN - 0735-2166, 1467-9906 UR - https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/07352166.2020.1834404 Y2 - 2021/04/28/09:54:05 L1 - files/18862/Bärnthaler et al_2020_A Polanyi-inspired perspective on social-ecological transformations of cities.pdf L1 - files/23386/Bärnthaler et al_2020_A Polanyi-inspired perspective on social-ecological transformations of cities.pdf L2 - https://doi.org/10.1080/07352166.2020.1834404 ER - TY - MANSCPT TI - Volkswirtschaftliche Effekte und Verteilungswirkungen einer ökosozialen Steuerreform.

T2 - Ecological Economics AB - This paper analyzes how racial and ethnic disparities in exposure to industrial air toxics in U.S. cities vary with neighborhood income, and how these disparities vary regionally across the country. Exposure is estimated at the census block-group level using geographic microdata from the Risk-Screening Environmental Indicators of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). We find that racial and ethnic disparities in pollution exposure are strongest among neighborhoods with median incomes below $25,000, while income-based disparities are stronger among neighborhoods with median incomes above that level. We also find considerable differences in the patterns of disparity across the ten EPA regions. In the two regions with the highest median exposure (the Midwest and South Central regions), for example, African-Americans and Hispanics face significantly higher exposures than whites, whereas in the region with the next highest exposure (the Mid-Atlantic), the reverse is true. We show that the latter result is attributable to intercity variations – minorities tend to live in the less polluted cities in the region – rather than to within-city variations.

AU - Glatter-Götz, Helene AU - Mohai, Paul AU - Haas, Willi AU - Plutzar, Christoph T2 - Environmental Research Letters AB - This is the first study to examine the existence of environmental inequality related to industrial facilities in Austria. Using distance-based methods, socioeconomic characteristics of inhabitants living in 1.0 km buffer zones around the 247 polluters registered in the European Pollutant Release and Transfer Registry are compared with those of inhabitants living elsewhere in Austria. While in Vienna no clear signs of environmental inequality can be found, in the rest of Austria people living in close vicinity to industrial sites are more often unemployed, have lower education levels and most notably, are twice as likely to be immigrants. Moreover, a logistic regression shows that the disparities concerning immigrants cannot solely be explained by other socioeconomic characteristics. The results of this study add to the evidentiary base concerning environmental justice disparities in Europe and suggests how application of distance-based methods can facilitate cross-national comparisons.

AU - Fanning, Andrew L. AU - Lamb, William F. AU - Steinberger, Julia K. T2 - Nature Sustainability AB - Humanity faces the challenge of how to achieve a high quality of life for over 7 billion people without destabilizing critical planetary processes. Using indicators designed to measure a ‘safe and just’ development space, we quantify the resource use associated with meeting basic human needs, and compare this to downscaled planetary boundaries for over 150 nations. We find that no country meets basic needs for its citizens at a globally sustainable level of resource use. Physical needs such as nutrition, sanitation, access to electricity and the elimination of extreme poverty could likely be met for all people without transgressing planetary boundaries. However, the universal achievement of more qualitative goals (for example, high life satisfaction) would require a level of resource use that is 2–6 times the sustainable level, based on current relationships. Strategies to improve physical and social provisioning systems, with a focus on sufficiency and equity, have the potential to move nations towards sustainability, but the challenge remains substantial.

As the most basic governmental unit in China, counties could better capture the regional heterogeneity than provinces and prefecture-level city, and county-level CO 2 emissions could be used for the development of strategic policies tailored to local conditions. However, most of the previous accounts of CO 2 emissions in China have only focused on the national, provincial, or city levels, owing to limited methods and smaller-scale data. In this study, a particle swarm optimization-back propagation (PSO-BP) algorithm was employed to unify the scale of DMSP/OLS and NPP/VIIRS satellite imagery and estimate the CO 2 emissions in 2,735 Chinese counties during 1997–2017. Moreover, as vegetation has a significant ability to sequester and reduce CO 2 emissions, we calculated the county-level carbon sequestration value of terrestrial vegetation. The results presented here can contribute to existing data gaps and enable the development of strategies to reduce CO 2 emissions in China.

T2 - Nature Energy AB - Inequality in energy consumption, both direct and indirect, affects the distribution of benefits that result from energy use. Detailed measures of this inequality are required to ensure an equitable and just energy transition. Here we calculate final energy footprints; that is, the energy embodied in goods and services across income classes in 86 countries, both highly industrialized and developing. We analyse the energy intensity of goods and services used by different income groups, as well as their income elasticity of demand. We find that inequality in the distribution of energy footprints varies across different goods and services. Energy-intensive goods tend to be more elastic, leading to higher energy footprints of high-income individuals. Our results consequently expose large inequality in international energy footprints: the consumption share of the bottom half of the population is less than 20% of final energy footprints, which in turn is less than what the top 5% consume.

In this paper, we will make four arguments. First, the increase in the incomes and wages of the top 1 percent over the last three decades should be interpreted as driven largely by the creation and/or redistribution of economic rents, and not simply as the outcome of well-functioning competitive markets rewarding skills or productivity based on marginal differences. This rise in rents accruing to the top 1 percent could be the result of increased opportunities for rentshifting, increased incentives for rent-shifting, or a combination of both. Second, this rise in incomes at the very top has been the primary impediment to having growth in living standards for low- and moderate-income households approach the growth rate of economy-wide productivity. Third, because this rise in top incomes is largely driven by rents, there is the potential for checking (or even reversing) this rise through policy measures with little to no adverse impact on overall economic growth. Lastly, this analysis suggests two complementary approaches for policymakers wishing to reverse the rise in the top 1 percent's share of income: dismantling the institutional sources of their increased ability to channel rents their way and/or reducing the return to this rent-seeking by significantly increasing marginal rates of taxation on high incomes.

Part 1. Mapping Income Inequality Across the OECD AU - Hoeller, Peter AU - Joumard, Isabelle AU - Pisu, Mauro AU - Bloch, Debra T2 - OECD Economics Department Working Papers AB - Countries differ widely with respect to the level of labour income inequality among individuals of working age. Labour income inequality is shaped by differences in wage rates, hours worked and inactivity rates. Individual labour income inequality is the main driver of household market income inequality, with family formation as well as self-employment and capital income dispersion playing a smaller role. Household disposable income dispersion is lower in all OECD countries than household market income inequality, due to the redistributive effect of tax and transfer systems, but redistribution differs widely across countries. This paper maps income inequality for all OECD countries across various inequality dimensions and summarises them in inequality outcome diamonds. It also provides a cluster analysis that identifies groups of countries that share similar inequality patterns. Moins d'inégalités de revenu et plus de croissance – Ces deux objectifs sont-ils compatibles?: Partie 1. Cartographie des inégalités de revenu dans les pays de l'OCDE Les inégalités des revenus du travail entre les personnes en âge de travailler varient largement selon les pays. Elles reflètent les écarts de salaire, de nombre d‘heures ouvrées et de taux d‘inactivité. Ces inégalités sont le principal facteur d‘inégalité du revenu marchand des ménages, la composition de la famille, l‘emploi indépendant et la répartition des revenus du capital jouant un moindre rôle. La répartition du revenu disponible des ménages dans tous les pays de l‘OCDE est moins importante que l‘inégalité du revenu marchand des ménages en raison de l‘effet redistributif de l‘impôt et des systèmes de transfert, mais cette redistribution est très variable selon les pays. Ce document dresse une cartographie des inégalités de revenu dans tous les pays de l‘OCDE en distinguant les différentes composantes de revenus et en les synthétisant sous forme de figures en diamant rendant compte des résultats obtenus. Il présente en outre une analyse par clusters mettant en évidence les groupes de pays ayant en commun les mêmes structures d‘inégalité.Countries differ widely with respect to the level of labour income inequality among individuals of working age.

Sen explains how in a world of unprecedented increase in overall opulence, millions of people living in rich and poor countries are still unfree. Even if they are not technically slaves, they are denied elementary freedom and remain imprisoned in one way or another by economic poverty, social deprivation, political tyranny or cultural authoritarianism. The main purpose of development is to spread freedom and its 'thousand charms' to the unfree citizens. Freedom, Sen persuasively argues, is at once the ultimate goal of social and economic arrangements and the most efficient means of realizing general welfare. Social institutions like markets, political parties, legislatures, the judiciary, and the media contribute to development by enhancing individual freedom and are in turn sustained by social values. Values, institutions, development, and freedom are all closely interrelated, and Sen links them together in an elegant analytical framework. By asking "What is the relation between our collective economic wealth and our individual ability to live as we would like?" and by incorporating individual freedom as a social commitment into his analysis, Sen allows economics once again, as it did in the time of Adam Smith, to address the social basis of individual well-being and freedom.

Ausgehend von der Verteilung der Markt- und Primäreinkommen (Markteinkommen, Pensionen und nettoimputierte Mieten) werden die Verteilungswirkungen der von den privaten Haushalten geleisteten Sozialbeiträge, direkten und indirekten Steuern und der von ihnen empfangenen Geld- und Sachleistungen der öffentlichen Hand in den Bereichen Gesundheit, Bildung, Familie, Wohnen, Arbeitslosigkeit und Bedarfsorientierte Mindestsicherung analysiert. Vor Umverteilung betrug das durchschnittliche Einkommen der Haushalte im obersten Zehntel der Einkommensverteilung das 30-Fache der Haushalte im untersten Zehntel, nach Umverteilung nur das 5,5-Fache. Die Umverteilung erfolgte von den Haushalten im oberen zu den Haushalten im unteren Drittel der Verteilung der Primäreinkommen. Öffentliche Sachleistungen lieferten den größten Beitrag zur Umschichtung vor den einkommensabhängigen Abgaben (Sozialbeiträge und direkte Steuern) und den öffentlichen Geldleistungen (ohne Pensionen). Die regressive Wirkung der indirekten Steuern senkte das Umverteilungsausmaß leicht. War die Ungleichheit sowohl der Primär- als auch der Sekundäreinkommen (Primäreinkommen nach Abzug aller direkten und indirekten Abgaben zuzüglich aller öffentlichen Geld- und Sachleistungen) zwischen 2000 und 2010 gestiegen, so kehrte sich diese Entwicklung zwischen 2010 und 2015 um. Da sich in diesem Zeitraum auch das Ausmaß der Umverteilung erhöhte, ging die Ungleichheit der Sekundärverteilung noch stärker zurück. Dieser Entwicklung lagen gegenläufige Veränderungen in Haushalten mit unterschiedlichen soziodemographischen Merkmalen zugrunde. Die Analyse verwendet Daten aus dem European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC), der Konsumerhebung und dem Household Finance and Consumption Survey (HFCS).

Durch eine integrierte modellbasierte Szenarioanalyse, welche auch Stakeholder und ExpertInnen miteinschließt, werden die ökonomischen, ökologischen und sozialen Wirkungen eines Übergangs in eine kohlenstoffarme Gesellschaft aus einer globalen wie auch aus einer europäischen und österreichischen Perspektive analysiert. Dazu wurde zunächst ein globales meetPASS-Szenario entwickelt, das politische Maßnahmen umfasst, die einen Übergang zu einer kohlenstoffarmen Gesellschaft unterstützen. Dieses Szenario wurde mit dem Multi-Regionen-Modell GINFORS quantifiziert. Nachdem die globalen Modellierungsergebnisse vorlagen, wurden die österreichische Basisprojektion und das meetPASS-Szenario abgeleitet und mit dem österreichischen Modell e3.at berechnet, um zu zeigen welche Auswirkungen sich auf ausgewählte SDG-Indikatoren ergeben. In diesem Working Paper wird zunächst das Modell e3.at kurz beschrieben, welches angewendet wird, um sowohl die e3.at-Basisprojektion als auch das meetPASS-Szenario zu berechnen und die wahrscheinlich zu erwartenden Auswirkungen für Österreich im Bereich der Wirtschaft, der Umwelt und soziale Aspekte zu quantifizieren.

In a European context increasingly influenced by variegated neo-liberal housing policies, Vienna’s approach is characterised by generous access to social housing. This inclusive strategy aims at actively preventing segregation and the isolation of certain groups. Over the last 30 years, however, reconfigured multi-level arrangements and wider contextual changes have transformed Vienna’s housing governance. This article explores how. In particular, it aims at disentangling the relationship between housing policy reforms at multiple policy levels and the changes of the mechanisms shaping the access to tenure segments and residential segregation in Vienna. Through the use of process tracing, we identify critical junctures of housing governance and relate them to housing segmentation and segregation measures over a period of approximately 30 years. Our findings show that reforms on multiple levels produce an increasingly deregulated private rental market and an increasingly fragmented access to a diversified provision of social housing. From a spatial point of view, persistent patterns of segregation blend with new ones, leading to decreasing segregation characterised by a more even spatial distribution of low and high-status groups. At the same time, both groups show very low, but slightly increased levels of isolation. Tenant profiles in social housing are, however, generally still very mixed. Balancing the trade-off between a social mix and social targeting without excluding residents in need will remain the main challenge for Vienna’s social housing model.

We extend previous studies by focussing on household heterogeneity, i.e. how housing attributes and socio-demographics govern a household's vulnerability to energy price increases. We apply the EASI demand system, which captures non-linear Engel curves and heterogeneous preferences; both crucial to estimate energy consumption. By simulating stylised, separate price increases we identify how seemingly overall similar welfare effects differ, depending on the energy good taxed, the region a household lives in, year of construction and household composition. These impact channels, with the severity of impacts differing according to various household characteristics are also reflected by the carbon tax scenario and reveal the importance of targeted support schemes. Although, each of the tested transfer schemes is able to enhance equality and cushion negative welfare effects, transfer schemes focussing on household size or on particular vulnerable population segments show the strongest effects in terms of equality, proportionality of the tax burden and welfare. Consequently, in order to yield a socially fair energy or carbon tax regime, taking household heterogeneity into account is essential.

AU - Schor, Juliet B. AU - Jorgenson, Andrew K. T2 - Social Currents AB - This study contributes to the emerging literature on connections between climate change and economic inequality by investigating the relationship between domestic wealth inequality and consumption-based carbon emissions for 26 high-income countries from 2000 to 2010. Results of the two-way fixed effects longitudinal models indicate that the effect of wealth inequality, measured as the wealth share of the top decile, on per capita emissions in high-income countries is consistently positive and relatively stable over the time period. This finding is consistent with political economy theories arguing that the concentration of political and economic power that accompanies the concentration of wealth plays an important role in increasing environmental degradation and preventing proenvironmental actions.

This approach allows them to test multiple hypotheses about the drivers of per capita emissions in a single framework and avoid several of the econometric issues that have plagued the environmental Kuznets curve literature. They estimate models for carbon and sulfur dioxide emissions. They can reject restricted models that omit either growth or beta convergence effects. Although the term representing the environmental Kuznets effect is statistically significant for per capita carbon and sulfur dioxide emissions, the estimated income per capita turning points are out of the sample for the full data set.

Concepts such as the multi-level perspective on socio-technical change have not given sufficient attention to space and place so far. We develop our considerations around the case of an “Energy Region” in Austria where people try to bring about a substantive shift in their “local” energy supply structure and have the ambition to contribute to a “general” transition towards sustainable energy systems. However, if this ambition is to stand the test of reality, what are the mechanisms and processes through which regional governance can have a broader impact on the transition of the energy system? What are the resources it can draw upon? What are the linkages with other governance levels? We investigate in detail how one regional showcase for the feasibility of a non-fossil, sustainable energy system was set up in Murau, a remote, alpine district of Austria. Starting from the multi-level framework for the modelling of niche-regime interaction, we put particular emphasis on the formation of discourse coalitions and dynamics of multi-level governance. Our findings support the view to pay considerably more attention to the interplay of local and non-local discourses and the dynamic relations between local initiatives and non-local networks which can provide specific opportunities for the legitimization and entrenchment of alternative socio-technical configurations.

'Energy regions' in Austria are an interesting example for the strategic promotion of such guiding visions in the context of regional development. We describe the case of Murau, an alpine district in which a strong actor network has been built around a vision of systematically exploiting renewable energy sources and at the same time saving the region from economic decay. The vision gained much authority and has been institutionalised at various levels of regional governance. It furthermore was supported by and played an important role for regime level attempts to influence socio-technical change. Development and social propagation of such visions are inherently political and contested processes involving much strategizing and anticipation of conflict. We describe particular discursive strategies applied in niches - such as the combination and translation of sentiments into localised visions and demonstrations of feasibility. These strategies can be understood as systematic attempts to support discursive shifts at regime level by means of local activities, and aim to modify rather durable power structures. We suggest ways to analyse such discursive practices in order to orient strategic action in the course of such processes: analysing 'guiding visions' and their interference with other emerging trends; extending analyses across spatial scales (e.g. translations) and across thematic fields (e.g. convergence of agendas); and focusing on processes of stabilisation, institutionalisation and mutually reinforcing developments.

T2 - Sustainability: Science, Practice and Policy AB - The environmental space concept illustrates that socially unsustainable underconsumption must be overcome and environmentally unsustainable overconsumption must be phased out. The planetary boundaries help to quantify the “ceiling,” while the social protection floor concept operationalizes the linea de dignidad, the minimal conditions for a dignified life. In order for Western societies to respect these limits, significant institutional change is needed with respect to both orientations and mechanisms. For the ceiling, this article suggests a shift to an orientation of “better but less” for affluent groups, and toward “enough and better” for those still living in poverty. The corresponding mechanisms include a redistribution of income and wealth, a cap on income, an unconditional minimum income, and a strengthening of democracy. The choice of instruments has to take into account that consumption is to a large degree not an individual but a social act and to employ informational, financial, and legal measures that overcome the preference of decision makers for market instruments. Implementing these changes would alter the fabric of our societies. Important first steps can be taken here and now.

The pace of innovation in the private sector heavily influences the growth of national output and productivity, and these studies and their conclusions have therefore received much attention, having been extensively quoted in discussions of appropriate government policy for the encouragement of innovation. This paper reviews a number of these studies and concludes that their findings, and the interpretations of their findings in the secondary literature, are seriously flawed and, in many cases, invalid. The proposition that market demand governs the innovation process is by no means conclusively demonstrated in these studies, and they are therefore inadequate and inappropriate guides for the formulation of policy. Most of the studies examined employ a working definition of “demand factors” which is so broad as to embrace a range of possible influences upon innovation which should more properly be classified elsewhere. The concept of demand utilized in these studies bears little resemblance to the more restrictive and precise definition of market demand found in economics. In addition, the phenomena analyzed in these studies are a very heterogeneous lot; the studies do not address identical empirical questions, and their findings are, as a result, neither uniform nor unambiguous. Both demand and supply side influences are crucial to understanding the innovation process, and it is the exclusive preoccupation with only one set of these forces which is criticized in this paper. Some implications of the criticism for government policy toward innovation are discussed in the conclusion.

Although during recent years, numerous of the previous studies have been very thoroughly investigated the nexus between economic growth and CO2 emissions, there is a lack of research regarding the qualitative systematic review and meta-analysis in these areas. The main purpose of this review paper is to present the comprehensive overview of the relationship between CO2 emissions and economic growth. In this regard, the Web of Science database has been chosen and a qualitative systematic and meta-analysis method which called “Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA)” has been proposed. Therefore, a review of 175 published articles appearing in 55 scholarly international journals between 1995 and 2017 has been achieved to reach a broad review of the nexus between economic growth and CO2 emissions with other indicators. Consequently, the selected articles have been categorized by the author name, the year of publication, data duration, types of techniques, data analysis method, the name of indicators, country, scope (individual country and multi-countries), journals, results, and outcome in which they appeared. The results of this paper demonstrated that the nexus between CO2 emissions and economic growth gives reasons for policy options that have to reduce emissions by imposing limiting factors on economic growth as well. Given the fact that bidirectional causality exists, as far as economic growth increases or decreases, further CO2 emissions are stimulated in higher or lower levels and consequently, a potential reduction of the emissions should have an adverse influence on economic growth.

The paper argues for a multi-scalar approach to energy transition theory and policy. National-scale processes and policies need to be complemented by regional and local policies in order to discover and incorporate meso-level sources of renewable energy, recognize that niche or path creation is a geographically localized process and mobilize heterogeneous, local actors around common “regional energy visions” to improve implementation of renewable energy projects. After critically reviewing the main theoretical approach to energy transitions, the multi-level perspective, the paper employs patent data to describe the comparative position of UK regions in the renewable energy sector and examines the success of Danish, German and Spanish regions resulting from strong government intervention at the national level supplemented by region-specific strategies. A number of policy strengths and shortcomings are identified in the evolutionary trajectory of the UK energy system including weak technology push and policy pull factors. Finally, the paper reviews existing regional renewable energy policy and speculates on the potential impact of recent changes in spatial and energy policies on the ability to deploy and develop renewable energy sources in the UK.

A major reason of the unsuccessfulness may be attributed to imprecise comprehension on the sources of greenhouse gas pollution and their changing dynamics. Utilizing the LMDI decomposition method, this paper investigates the time- and spatial-dynamics of drivers governing global carbon emissions. We decompose and quantify the effects of different drivers, that is, population, affluence, energy intensity and carbon intensity, across time on global carbon emissions. Next based on country-level decomposition, we also calculate and track the spatial gravity centers of the effects of the drivers. Our results show that energy intensity effect is the leading contributor for carbon emission mitigation, whereas economic development, carbon emission intensity and population serve as factors accelerating carbon emissions. We also find significant heterogeneities in the spatial dynamics of the contribution of different drivers, implying that differentiated climate change policies should be made at different countries to effectively curb global carbon emissions.

Zeitschrift für kritische Sozialwissenschaft AB - The present crisis in Europe is just one form of a multiple crisis of the social formationdominated by the capitalist mode of production. More specifically it is a crisis of the financedominatedregime of accumulation which developed as a response to the crisis of Fordismsince the 1980s. In this article, first we analyze the contradictions of the finance-dominatedregime of accumulation and the contradictions of the crisis management of the ruling classes.

AU - Steinberger, Julia K. T2 - Nature Communications AB - For over half a century, worldwide growth in affluence has continuously increased resource use and pollutant emissions far more rapidly than these have been reduced through better technology. The affluent citizens of the world are responsible for most environmental impacts and are central to any future prospect of retreating to safer environmental conditions. We summarise the evidence and present possible solution approaches. Any transition towards sustainability can only be effective if far-reaching lifestyle changes complement technological advancements. However, existing societies, economies and cultures incite consumption expansion and the structural imperative for growth in competitive market economies inhibits necessary societal change.
