Tiivistelmä: | When formal regulation is weak or absent , communities often use other channels to induce pollution abatement by local factories in a process of "informal regulation". The resulting "pollution equilibrium" reflects the relative bargaining power of the community and the plant. This note uses Indonesian data from 1989-90 on plant-level organic water pollution to test the information regulation hypothesis. Under formal regulation, the government acts as an agent for the community in controlling industrial pollution. |
