- Markus Kinateder & Luca Paolo Merlino (2015): Public Goods in Endogenous Networks
In this paper we study a local public good game in an endogenous network with heterogeneous agents. ... When agents differ in the cost of acquiring the public good, active agents form hierarchical complete multipartite graphs; yet, better types need not have more neighbors. When agents have heterogeneous benefits from the public good, nested split graphs in which investment need not be monotonic in type emerge.

Finding alternatives in public good financing is one of the most recent issues in the government sector. Tax-financed for pure public good is well known results further problems like externalities and economic inequity. This paper only addresses the qualitative analysis in discussing benefits and costs of the society in applying some alternatives in funding public good provisions, pure and impure one.
RePEc:unp:wpaper:200201 Save to MyIDEAS - GABSZEWICZ, Jean J. & GVETADZE, Salome & ZANAJ, Skerdilajda (2011): Migrations, public goods and taxes
The agglomeration force comes from the scale economies in the provision of local public goods, whereas the dispersion force comes from congestion in consumption of public goods. Public goods considered resemble club goods (or public goods with congestion) and people are heterogeneous in their migration costs. ... The high provision of public good offsets the congestion effect. ... Firstly, when public good supply is intermediate, people move to avoid congestion in the large country and to benefit from low taxation in the small one. Finally, when the provision of public goods is low, people move towards the small countries just to avoid congestion.

We present a model of public good provision with a distributor. Our main result describes a symmetric mixed-strategy equilibrium, where all agents contribute to a common fund with probability p and the distributor provides either a particular amount of public goods or nothing. A corollary of this finding is the efficient public good provision equilibrium where all agents contribute to the common fund, all agents are expected to contribute, and the distributor spends the entire common fund for the public good provision.
RePEc:zbw:qmsrps:202208 Save to MyIDEAS - VARIAN, H.R. (1990): Sequential Provision Of Public Goods
I consider the private provision of public goods in two stage games. If the agent who likes the public good least contributes first, the amount of the public good supplied will be the same as in the Nash equilibrium. If the agent who likes the public good most contributes first, less of the public good may be supplied. ... If the agents bid for the right to move first, the agent who values the public good least will win.

This paper focuses on the relationship between public action and access to public goods. ... This is followed by a review of empirical research on collective action and public goods. ... Access to public goods is often better explained by "top-down" interventions rather than the "bottom-up" processes highlighted in the collective action literature.
RePEc:eee:devchp:5-49 Save to MyIDEAS - U. Sankar (2008): Global Public Goods
An International Task Force on Global Public Goods was constituted in 2003 to identify relevant international public goods froma perspective of reducing poverty and to study the provision and financing issues. See International Task Force on Global Public Goods (2006). This Task Force has identified the following priority global public goods (GPGs) : (a) preventing the emergence and spread of infectious disease, (b) tackling climate change, (c) enhancing international financial stability, (d) strengthening the international trading system, (e) achieving peace and security, and (f) generating knowledge. ... Section 3 classifies GPGs into two categories : pure global public goods and global public goods by global public choice.
RePEc:eab:tradew:22510 Save to MyIDEAS - ILIESCU Elena Mihaela & CONSTANTINESCU Maria Florentina (2010): Public Goods in the Global Economy
The concept of a global public good is in fact the global economy, an extension of the concept of public good. In order for a public good to be considered a global public good has to fulfill the quasi-universality of the benefits arising from its use by the countries, nations and generations. As a result, the role of the international organizations is emphasized regarding the production of global public goods. Inge Kaul argues that ONU is the home of the global public goods, and sees the organization as the intermediary global public goods, called to produce final global public goods, such as peace, security and global justice. Charles Wyplosz designates the financial stability as a global public good.

In this work, the depreciation effect of public goods is considered in the public goods games, which is realized by rescaling the multiplication factor r of each group as r′=r(ncG)β (β≥0). It is assumed that each individual enjoys the full profit r of the public goods if all the players of this group are cooperators. Otherwise, the value of public goods is reduced to r′.
