The two major concerns in the energy policy debate relate to
economic efficiency and whether the price should indicate to each
consumer the true cost to the economy of using more energy, and the
second is that of economic equity where it is argued that energy is
a basic necessity for survival and the government has the
responsibility to provide assistance for lower-income families.
Originally published in 1982, this volume focuses on the uneven
impact of rising energy costs on different income groups, regions,
and household locations. This collection of papers helps to fill
the knowledge gaps about the amount and distribution of household
energy expenditure. The volume is organised with a paper
introducing each topic followed by one or two discussants' remarks
further examining the issues at hand. It is a valuable title for
students interested in environmental studies and national policy.
