Title: Climate Change Justice: Historical Accountability and Equal Treatment (jointly with Min Kim, Suyi Kim, and Juan D. Moreno-Ternero)
Abstract: We consider the problem of allocating greenhouse gas reduction targets among countries, or regions, with, possibly, different historical and future emissions (if they remain in business as usual) and populations. We formulate several normative principles, pertaining to emission history or population, as axioms for allocation rules. We show that two specific combinations of these axioms characterize the so-called equal per capita allocation rules, with or without historical accountability.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
