本文运用公共产品理论中的现代概念来说明为什么在一些全球和区域公共产品(例如,减少硫排放)方面取得了进展,而在其他方面(例如,减少温室气体排放)却没有取得进展。促进在跨国一级采取集体行动的因素包括消除不确定性、国家特有利益的比例很高、关键参与者数量有限以及有一个有影响力的领导国家的存在。公共产品聚合技术对未来跨国公共产品提供的影响与世界范围内收入不平等的趋势有关。提出了为解决跨国公益问题而设计超国家结构的原则。
This paper applies modern concepts from the theory of public goods to indicate why progress has been made with respect to some global and regional public goods (for example, cutting sulphur emissions) but not with respect to others (for example, cutting greenhouse gases). Factors promoting collective action at the transnational level include the removal of uncertainty, a high share of nation-specific benefits, a limited number of essential participants and the presence of an influential leader nation. The impact of public good aggregation technologies on the future provision of transnational public goods is related to the trend in world-wide income inequality. Principles are presented for designing supranational structures for addressing transnational public good problems.
