While such refuges are primarily intended to support biodiversity, their economic implications remain insufficiently understood. This paper develops a tractable two-species predator–prey model with specialized, strategic harvesting to assess how prey refuges shape the efficiency and sustainability of multispecies fisheries. Prey refuges lower effective fishing pressure on both species. Beyond increasing gains in the prey fishery by mitigating natural predation, they may also generate spillover gains for the predator industry through greater prey availability outside the refuge. The analysis characterizes conditions under which a welfare-maximizing regulator would implement an artificial refuge to manage predation intensity. Since a refuge provides benefits only through population dynamics, the discount rate is an important determinant of the model. Even when human predation is controlled through optimal harvesting quotas, artificial refuges remain an effective instrument for managing natural predation. Finally, I use data from predator–prey interactions in Lake Victoria fisheries to support the theoretical findings.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47024,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Economic Theory","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2026-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145963993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a simplified two-type version of the baseline macroeconomy, we analytically show that higher fiscal progression leads to less unequal long-run gross/net income distributions, provided the general-equilibrium elasticity of aggregate labor supply surpasses a specific negative threshold. This inequality-growth relationship is found to hold for all variants of our model under consideration. Numerical simulations find that under either productivity-enhancing or utility-generating public expenditures, together with the elasticity of substitution in intertemporal-consumption/production taking on the highest/lowest possible value regarded as empirically plausible, our fully-calibrated model to OECD data with five types/quintiles is able to generate qualitatively as well as quantitatively realistic long-run disposable-income inequality effects of changing the tax progressivity <i>vis-à-vis</i> recent panel estimation results.
