Some problems with environmental economics
Environmental Ethics 10 (1):55-74 (1988)
Abstract
In this essay I criticize the contigent valuation method in resource economics and the concepts of utility and efficiency upon which it is based. I consider an example of this method and argue that it cannot-as it pretends-substitute for public education and political deliberation.Author's Profile
