Mapping the empirical relationship between environmental performance and social preferences : Evidence from macro data
85-102 p.
- This paper investigates the relationship between measures of environmental performance and of social preferences, thanks to the availability of a recently published dataset on global preferences. Using cross-sectional observations from 76 countries, this study finds evidence from macro data of a positive and statistically significant relationship between measures of proso- cial preferences, such as positive reciprocity, trust, and altruism, and environmental policy indicators in the categories of agriculture, forestry, and climate change after controlling for economic and geospatial factors.
- At the micro level, the results presented in this paper suggest a broader theory of collective action that is based on a behavioral approach to climate policy to mitigate motivational crowd out in settings of high reciprocity and trust. At the macro level, the results presented in this paper suggest a broader theory of climate clubs that includes pro-social preferences, such as positive reciprocity, trust, and altruism, as key cooperation mechanisms in International Environmental Agreements.
