Monday, 16 December 2024 08:41 Postdoctoral Researcher in Sustainability Economics, ETH Zurich, Switzerland Postdoctoral Researcher in Sustainability Economics The Sustainability Economics Group, led by Prof. Dr. Moritz Drupp, seeks to inform and support the transition to sustainable futures. We investigate how society can manage natural and human-made resources not only efficiently but also equitably. Research foci in the group include: 1. Studying the efficacy and distributional effects of environmental policies. 2. Exploring concepts of intergenerational justice, such as applied to estimating the social cost of carbon. 3. Analysing preferences and sustainability-relevant behaviours. 4. Accounting for the limited substitutability of nature when measuring and managing sustainable development. We draw on a diversity of methods (theory, modelling, surveys, experiments, quasi-experimental designs), often in international, interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary cooperation, and publish our work in general economics journals (e.g. American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, Journal of Economic Literature), field journals (e.g. JEEM), and interdisciplinary journals (e.g. Nature Climate Change, PNAS, Science). With our teaching, we seek to stir students’ enthusiasm for the possibilities in which economic theories and empirical methods can help to better understand and manage sustainability challenges. We furthermore actively contribute to the societal debate and help to improve public policy. #J-18808-Ljbffr
