27th Annual Conference of the European Association of Law and Economics (EALE)
Edwin Woerdman presented a paper on emissions trading for households at the 27th Annual Conference of the European Association of Law and Economics (EALE) that was held from the 23rd to the 25th of September 2010 at the University Paris 2 Panthéon Assas in Paris.
