摘要

本文基于州际迁移前后家庭回收的变化，估计了州回收法和存款法对回收行为的影响。从1498个在州之间迁移的家庭的全国面板数据集得出的估计提供了一个准实验性的测试，否则考虑到此类法律在任何州的长期稳定性，这是不可能的。与全国平均回收率相比，搬到有饮料容器押金的州，回收的材料种类增加了41%。更严格的回收法也有效，但影响较小。回收法使回收材料的数量增加了9%，其中最大的影响是玻璃的回收率增加了17%。从有押金法的州迁移到没有押金法的州，回收材料的数量减少了13%。迁出有严格法律的州只对塑料产生了统计上显著的影响，在迁出后塑料的排放量减少了12%。

Quasi-Experimental Evidence on the Impact of State Recycling and Deposit Laws: Household Recycling Following Interstate Moves

This article estimates the effects on recycling behavior of state recycling laws and deposit laws based on changes in household recycling before and after interstate moves. Estimates from a national panel dataset of 1,498 households who moved between states provide a quasi-experimental test otherwise not possible given long-term stability of such laws in any state. Compared to national average recycling rates, moves to states with deposits for beverage containers increased the number of material types recycled by 41%. More stringent recycling laws are also effective, but they have a smaller impact. Recycling laws boosted the number of materials recycled by 9%, with the largest effect being the 17% increase in the recycling rate for glass. Moves from states with deposit laws to states without such laws decreased the number of materials recycled by 13%. Shifts out of states with stringent laws only had statistically significant effects for plastic, which exhibited a 12% decrease after such a move.

期刊介绍： The rise of the field of law and economics has been extremely rapid over the last 25 years. Among important developments of the 1990s has been the founding of the American Law and Economics Association. The creation and rapid expansion of the ALEA and the creation of parallel associations in Europe, Latin America, and Canada attest to the growing acceptance of the economic perspective on law by judges, practitioners, and policy-makers.
