Economics & the environment:
researching pathways into the future
The Resource Economics Group advances economic research on
sustainable development, in particular:
- Institutional economics of climate change adaptation
- Political games in climate change mitigation
- Governance of path dependence in the energy transition
- Archetype analysis as an approach to study social-
ecological-technical systems
We have a strong theoretical background in environmental and resource economics, political economy and institutional economics. Our research employs and combines quantitative and qualitative methods -- game theory, simulation, and comparative case studies.
