Theory of Public Goods and Externalities

Announcements

The main source of reading for this course will be a series of articles. Whenever possible, I will provide links from this website to electronic versions of these papers. For those papers that are not available electronically, I will try to arrange to get you photocopies. As the course progresses, I will also update my lecture notes up on the Web. Each lecture includes a series of problems. You will be required to work them and turn them in.   I have no objections to your working together, but I will ask you to turn in acknowledge any help that you have had.
We will sometimes discuss the answers in class, and  I will post answers for these problem sets after you have turned in your work.
