Social Costs of Energy

The social or external costs of energy have received a high degree of international attention since the publication of the first empirical results in 1988. Possible global climate change and the call for a sustainable future of mankind have put the question of social costs onto many national and international political agendas. At the same time, an intense international scientific discussion has been sparked off, searching for the best methodological approaches and reliable empirical data. An overview of this discussion was given by the report on the 1st international workshop published in 1991. This book reports on the 2nd international workshop on the subject and gives a broad overview of the discussion in the 25 papers presented. It is the most comprehensive picture of this subject matter available.
