The concept of creating public goods by land factor is often considered in literature, but its theoretical foundations are quite debatable. The theories of land rent in mainstream economics stand at the position that land factor alone does not create any utility, which means that it does not...

We investigate the sources, scope, and implications of landowner market power. We show how zoning regulations generate spillovers through increased markups and derive conditions under which restricting landownership concentration reduces rents. Using newbuilding-level data from New York City, we...

Ricardian (hedonic) analyses of the impact of climate change on farmland values typically assume additively separable effects of temperature and precipitation. Model estimation is implemented on data aggregated across counties or large regions. We investigate the potential bias induced by such...

This note revisits the problem of rent extraction in situations where agents are uncertain about the private information of others, represented by multiple probabilistic assessments. A generalization of convex independence (Crémer and McLean, 1985 and 1988) is necessary and sufficient for full...
