“…The industrial policy cluster focuses on environmental sustainability aspects, and they are well connected with studies on environmental conflicts [60], the role of the developmental state for climate policy [80], policies for innovation [81], and energy transition [56]. Moreover, these studies connect with papers about innovation for sustainability transitions [82,83] and green growth strategies [58,64].…”

Research on economic diversification and complexity has made significant advances in understanding economic development processes, but has only recently explored environmental and social sustainability considerations. In this article we evaluate the current state of this emerging literature and reveal 13 research gaps. A total of 35 different keywords and methods from structured literature reviews and network science helped to identify 374 scientific articles between 1988 and 2020 and revealed a fragmented research landscape around three larger network communities: (1) industrial policies, climate change, and green growth; (2) economic complexity and its association with inequality and environmental sustainability; and (3) economic diversification, including studies on livelihood diversification in poor areas. Economic complexity research applies new empirical methods and considers both social and environmental sustainability, but seldom scrutinizes theory and policy. Industrial policy research focuses on green growth policies but tends to omit social sustainability issues and advanced empirical methods. Research on economic diversification in poor regions provides insights on the livelihood diversification of farmers, but is disconnected from the economic complexity and industrial policy research. This review helps to summarize the main contributions and shows pathways for potential mutual learning between these communities for the sake of sustainable development.

“…Academic research has recently focused on the impact of different carbon policies, such as carbon cap-and-trade [5,15,16,17,18,19,20], and carbon taxes [21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28]. All of these existing studies investigate the change of the manufacturer’s decisions before and after the introduction of a single carbon policy.…”

Many carbon reduction policies have been implemented to reduce carbon dioxide in the manufacturing process of products. However, many products emit more carbon dioxide in the consumption process. From the consumer’s utility perspective, this paper firstly analyses the manufacturing and marketing model selection decisions of a monopoly manufacturer under the mixed carbon policy, and then a win-win result that can encourage the manufacturer to choose the marketing model with lower carbon emissions while at the same time obtaining the optimal profit is discussed. The results show that the production activity will proceed only when the carbon trading price is lower than a certain threshold. When the carbon trading price is lower than a certain threshold, leasing represents the manufacturer’s optimal marketing model. When the carbon trading price is higher than the threshold, selling represents the manufacturer’s optimal marketing model. For the carbon cap Q, there are equilibrium intervals in which the government can achieve the aim of controlling carbon emissions, while not overly affecting the manufacturer’s enthusiasm for production. For the carbon trading price and the carbon tax rate, there are two different intervals in which leasing gains more profit for the manufacturer while emitting lower carbon emissions.

“…In the context above, the credibility thesis (Ho, 2014) was put forward in this journal, and later elaborated (Ho, 2017), postulating that institutional Form follows from Function, in effect, the position that predicting the performance of institutions in relation to whether they are private, public or common is irrelevant, as any institutional form may function or dysfunction depending on space and time. Described by Davy (2018: 855) as a "rallying call of function presides over form", the inclusion of function in institutional analysis has since been applied in different sectors, ranging from ecological conservation (Fan et al, 2019;Zhao and Rokpelnis, 2016), climate policy (Rogge and Dütschke, 2018), urbanization and informal settlements (Wu et al, 2018;Zeuthen, 2018;Oranje et al, 2020;Celhay and Gil, 2020), water management and irrigation (Gomes and Hermans, 2018;Mollinga, 2016), banks and notaries (Marois and Güngen, 2016;Monkkonen, 2016), artisanal mining and property rights (Nesru et al, 2019;Fold et al, 2018;Mengistu and Dijk, 2018), and labor institutions (Miyamura, 2016). These studies have validated the thesis in qualitative and quantitative ways, thereby covering a variety of regions, ranging from Asia, Latin America, Africa and Europe.…”

Institutional form versus function in a common property context: The credibility thesis tested through an agent-based model

A key debate in the study on land, housing and natural resources revolves around the notion that general institutional forms (such as private, common, public, and likewise formal property rights) lead to a certain institutional performance (as may be expressed in terms of prices, transaction costs or sustainability). However, a modest, yet, growing stream in institutional analysis aims to move away from 'merely describing the characteristics' of institutions (i.e., form variables) to 'performance or quality measures' (i.e., function variables). Following this line of argument, the credibility thesis as put forward in this journal (Ho, 2014) postulates that the form of institutions is unrelated to their performance, and institutions are unintentional outcomes rather than designed artefacts. The primary goal of this research is to ascertain whether this dual prediction could be observed in a simulation model that is driven by agent behaviour and interaction, resulting in emerging institutions. We devise an empirically verified agent-based model within a classical thought experiment on a common property resource to validate the thesis' predictions. First, our model confirms that different forms of institutions can have a similar performance. Second, we ascertain that successful institutions in difficult management situations can emerge (rather than being designed) that are beneficial for the sustainability of the common resource and the appropriators of that resource.
