The economic costs of trans-boundary pollution spillovers versus local effects is a necessary input in evaluating … centralized versus decentralized environmental policies. Directly estimating these for air pollution is difficult because … pollution is endogenous. We develop an approach to quantify local versus spillover effects as a flexible function of distance …
