论文摘要
我们研究绿色政府如何影响环境,宏观经济和教育成果。我们认为,日本的福岛核灾难导致了2011年德国州Baden-Wuerttemberg政府的意外变化。使用合成控制方法,我们没有发现绿色政府影响二氧化碳排放或增加可再生能源的总体使用。风力使用的份额甚至减少。生态冲突阻止了绿色政府实施环境政策的巨大变化。结果并不表明绿色政府影响了宏观经济结果。包容性教育政策导致综合学校变得更大。
We examine how Green governments influence environmental, macroeconomic, and education outcomes. We exploit that the Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan gave rise to an unanticipated change in government in the German state Baden-Wuerttemberg in 2011. Using the synthetic control method, we find no evidence that the Green government influenced CO2 emissions or increased renewable energy usage overall. The share of wind power usage even decreased. Intra-ecological conflicts prevented the Green government from implementing drastic changes in environmental policies. The results do not suggest that the Green government influenced macroeconomic outcomes. Inclusive education policies caused comprehensive schools to become larger.
