- Inhalt
- Renewable and non-renewable natural resources play an important role in economics. Natural resources can serve as inputs for production, but can also play a role in providing ecological services, for example as a sink for pollutants. Students should learn about optimal rules to extract renewable and non-renewable natural resources. They should know how markets for these kinds of resources perform, and under what circumstances there can be market failure and how policy instruments can correct for market failure.
Furthermore, students will learn methods of dynamic optimization, in particular control theory (How to deal with Hamiltonians and Bellman equations). They should be able to analyse simple dynamical optimization problems; in particular derive first-order conditions, the Euler condition for optimal resource extraction and be familiar with phase diagrams.
