| Tiivistelmä: | This paper explores the outcome of an international environmental agreement with the governments (hereafter as: gov./govs.) elected by their citizens. It also considers a voter's incentives for supporting candidates who are less green than she is. In the extreme case of "global" pollution, the elected politicians (here as: polcs.) pay no attention to the environment, and the resulting international agreement is totally ineffective. Moreover, if govs. cannot negotiate and have to decide non-cooperatively, the elected polcs. can be greener, ecological damage can be lower and the median voter's payoff can be higher than in the case with bargaining. |
