Managing Tropical Forests: Reflections on the Rent Distribution Discussion
分析了商业森林采伐中租金与特许权使用费的讨论，指出其混淆短期与长期效率、忽视一次性收费和行政成本等问题，并提出了一个分析框架来澄清这些议题。
Commercial forest extraction is one component of the tropical deforestation issue. Discussions about commercial extraction focus on choices among alternate rents and royalties. These discussions often confuse measures of short- and long-run efficiency and equate distributive issues with efficiency. They also overlook (1) potential lump sum charges, (2) administrative costs, and (3) previous public forestry agency experience. This paper develops a simple analytical construct for clarifying these issues and examines each in turn.
