Hoffmann, Michael H. G.
This argument map represents the basic argumentation that Sir Nicholas H. Stern and his collaborators developed in The Economics of Climate Change in form of a logical argument map (Cambridge, UK, 2007: Cambridge University Press; online: http://www.hm-treasury.gov.uk/stern_review_report.htm). The map includes Stern's argumentation in blue; criticism of several of Stern's assumptions by "main stream economists" in red; and critique by "environmentalist economists" in orange. This way, the argument map represents a complex debate on one of the most influential books on the economics of climate change.
