Virtue Ethics Between East and West in Consumer Research: Review, Synthesis and Directions for Future Research

14th November 2019
KCG Secretary
  • KCG Journal Articles
  • Publications
Authors: Guli-Sanam Karimova, Nils Christian Hoffmann, Ludger Heidbrink and Stefan Hoffmann (Journal of Business Ethics, 2019)

This literature review systematically synthesizes studies that link consumer research to differences and similarities in virtue ethics between the East and the West, with a focus on early Chinese and ancient Greek virtue ethics. These two major traditions provide principles that guide consumer behavior and thus serve as a background to comparatively explain and evaluate the ethical nature of consumer behavior in the East and the West. The paper first covers Eastern and Western[…]

Subsidies, Spillovers and Exports

  • KCG Journal Articles
  • Publications
Authors: Sourafel Girma, Holger Görg and Ignat Stepanok (Economic Letters, 2020, Vol. 186, 108840)

We ask whether production related subsidies have a role to play in explaining Chinese firms’ export performance. We, firstly, implement an estimation approach that allows for both direct and indirect (“spillover”) effects of the subsidy on the probability to export[…]

Which Is the Fairest One of All? A Positive Analysis of Justice Theories

Authors: James Konow (Cappelen, A.W. and Tungodden, B. (eds.), 2019 The Economics of Fairness, MA: Edward Elgar (reprinted from the Journal of Economic Literature, 2003): Northampton, 68-119)

This paper evaluates numerous positive and normative theories of justice in positive terms, i.e., in terms of how accurately they describe the impartial fairness preferences of real people. In addition, the paper proposes and defends an integrated justice theory based on[…]

Is Fairness in the Eye of the Beholder? An Impartial Spectator Analysis of Justice

12th November 2019
KCG Secretary
  • KCG Journal Articles
  • Publications
Authors: James Konow (Bauer, A.M. and Meyerhuber, M. (eds), Empirical Research and Normative Theory: Transdisciplinary Perspectives on Two Methodological Traditions between Separation and Interdependence, De Gruyter 2020, 237-272 (reprinted from Social Choice and Welfare, 2009): Berlin)

A popular sentiment is that fairness is inexorably subjective and incapable of being determined by objective standards. This study, on the other hand, seeks to establish evidence on unbiased justice and to propose and demonstrate a general approach for measuring impartial views empirically. Most normative justice theories associate impartiality with limited information and with consensus, i.e., a high level of agreement about what is right. In both the normative and positive literature[…]

Can Ethics Instruction Make Economics Students More Pro-social?

KCG Secretary
  • KCG Journal Articles
  • Publications
Authors: James Konow (Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization, 2019, Vol. 166, 724-734)

Numerous studies suggest that economics students act in a more self-interested manner, on average, than other students. According to much of the literature on the topic, this is due, at least in part, to the economics training itself with its emphasis on self-interest[…]

Equity versus Equality: Spectators, Stakeholders and Groups

KCG Secretary
  • KCG Journal Articles
  • Publications
Authors: James Konow, Tatsuyoshi Saijo and Kenju Akai (Journal of Economic Psychology, 2020, Vol. 77, 102171)

Justice figures prominently in a wide variety of economically important contexts that involve both third parties and involved parties, e.g., in environmental regulation, international trade, and legal proceedings. The primary rivals for fairness rules over the distribution of a fixed good are equality and equity (i.e., allocations that are proportional to contributions). This paper reports the results of a dictator experiment in relation to a large variety of factors that might affect these rules[…]

Cross-cultural Application of a Practice-Oriented Acquiescence Measure

KCG Secretary
  • KCG Journal Articles
  • Publications
Authors: Carolin Krauts and Stefan Hoffmann (International Marketing Review, 2019, Vol. 6(3), 391-415)

Extant research shows that acquiescence response style (ARS) is culture-bound and may bias the results of comparative cross-cultural studies. Conventional measures of ARS are difficult to apply in practice. To overcome this limitation[…]

Research Trends in Environmental and Resource Economics: Insights from four Decades of JEEM

  • KCG Journal Articles
  • Publications
Authors: Roland Kube, Andreas Löschel, Henrik Mertens and Till Requate (Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, 2018, Vol. 92, 433-464)

This paper provides a contemporary analysis of how research issues have developed in the Journal of Environmental Economics and Management (JEEM) over the four decades of its existence. We have classified the articles in the journal along five dimensions: content, methods, environmental media, the regional dimension of studies[…]

Do Climate Engineering Experts Display Moral-Hazard Behaviour?

12th November 2019
KCG Secretary
  • KCG Journal Articles
  • Publications
Authors: Christine Merk, Gert Pönitzsch and Katrin Rehdanz (Climate Policy, 2019, Vol. 19(2), 231-243)

Discourse analyses and expert interviews about climate engineering (CE) report high levels of reflectivity about the technologies’ risks and challenges, implying that CE experts are unlikely to display moral hazard behaviour, i.e. a reduced focus on mitigation[…]

Tell the Truth or not? The Montero Mechanism for Emissions Control at Work

  • Publications
Authors: Till Requate, Eva Camacho-Cuena, Kean Siang Ch’ng and Israel Waichman (Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, 2019, Vol. 95, 133-152)

We experimentally test the truth-telling mechanism proposed by Montero (2008) for eliciting firms’ abatement costs. We compare this mechanism with two well-known alternative allocation mechanisms, free and costly allocation of permits at the Pigouvian price[…]
