Tiivistelmä: | We examine the effect of corruption and industry sector size on energy policy outcomes. Our results indicate that: greater corruption of policy makers reduces energy policy stringency; greater lobby coordination costs (increased industry sector size) results in more stringent energy policy; and workers' and capital owners' lobbying efforts on energy policy are negatively related. These results are tested using a unique panel data set on the energy intensity of 11 sectors in 12 OECD countries for years 1982-1996. |
