摘要

去碳化、环境保护和可持续发展比以往任何时候都更受关注。尽管有关环境税的递减性的争论由来已久,但福利国家在缓冲气候政策的不利分配影响方面所起的作用在很大程度上尚未得到探讨。我们研究了社会政策是否能保护家庭免于因与消费挂钩的环境税而陷入贫困。我们特别关注社会保险和社会援助中收入替代的重要性。为了详细评估环境政策的分配结果,我们将环境税计入欧盟收入和生活条件统计(EU-SILC)。我们对 26 个欧洲国家进行的比较分析表明,由于环境税的存在,福利国家保护了家庭免受相对收入贫困的影响。此外,教育群体之间的比较表明,社会保险和社会援助在减少与环境税相关的社会经济贫困梯度方面发挥着不同但互补的作用。

Social sustainability in the decarbonized welfare state: Social policy as a buffer against poverty related to environmental taxes
Decarbonization, environmental protection, and sustainable development are more topical than ever. Despite long-standing debates about the regressive profile of environmental taxes, the welfare state’s role in buffering adverse distributive impacts of climate policy is largely unexplored. We examine if social policy shields households from falling into poverty due to environmental taxes tied to consumption. We specifically focus on the importance of income replacement in social insurance and social assistance. To enable detailed assessments of the distributive outcomes of environmental policy, we impute environmental taxes into the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC). Our comparative analysis of 26 European countries indicates that the welfare state protects households from relative income poverty due to environmental taxes. Moreover, comparisons between educational groups suggest that both social insurance and social assistance play different yet complementary roles in reducing socio-economic gradients in poverty related to environmental taxes.

期刊介绍: Global Social Policy is a fully peer-reviewed journal that advances the understanding of the impact of globalisation processes upon social policy and social development on the one hand, and the impact of social policy upon globalisation processes on the other hand. The journal analyses the contributions of a range of national and international actors, both governmental and non-governmental, to global social policy and social development discourse and practice. Global Social Policy publishes scholarly policy-oriented articles and reports that focus on aspects of social policy and social and human development as broadly defined in the context of globalisation be it in contemporary or historical contexts.
