Abstract

El presente artículo estudia la agregación de los costes y beneficios que recaen sobre las generaciones futuras mediante una ponderación que refleje las preferencias sociales al respecto. Se muestra que la ponderación intergeneracional social y la individual divergen si se considera una sociedad con más de una generación e individuos altruistas, y que ambas son distintas al peso que implica aplicar a las generaciones futuras el descuento temporal de las generaciones presentes, como ocurre con el valor actual neto convencional. El trabajo propone la aplicación de una nueva metodología que tenga en cuenta estas preferencias: el valor actual neto multigeneracional. Finalmente, se analizan las implicaciones de la nueva metodología con una estructura generacional más realista. Classification-JEL : D61, D64, H43.
