As a key concern for human survival and development, environmental issues have been widely perceived to be impacted by various political institutional factors. A considerable body of literature has attempted to investigate how different political factors affect environmental policymaking and outcomes. In this paper, we critically review related scholarly works published in peer‐reviewed economic journals in the past 30 years, with an emphasis on the empirical literature. Political institutional factors considered in this survey include corruption, the general concept and specific elements of democracy, and the vertical structure of environmental regulation authority within different levels of governments (i.e. environmental federalism). Studies focusing on the interplay of these factors are also highlighted. Based on a critical review, we provide a guide to the datasets, methodologies, and main findings of the literature. We also point out the existing gaps, and put forward suggestions for future research directions.

环境后果的政治经济:实证文学研究述评

作为人类生存与发展的关键问题,人们广泛认为环境问题受到各种政治体制因素的影响。大量文献试图研究不同的政治因素如何影响环境政策制定和结果。在本文中,我们批判性地回顾了过去30年在同行评审的经济期刊上发表的相关学术著作,重点是经验文献。本次调查考虑的政治体制因素包括腐败,民主的一般概念和特定要素以及各级政府内部环境监管机构的垂直结构(即环境联邦制)。还着重研究了这些因素之间相互作用的研究。根据严格的审查,我们提供了有关数据集,方法论和文献主要发现的指南。我们还指出了目前存在的差距,并为今后的研究方向提出了建议。
