Securite environnementale et sanitaire : les biens controverses

Author

  • Lupton, Sylvie

Abstract

Scientific controversies concerning environmental and health impacts of a good leads us to revisit the nature and status of quality uncertainty on goods' characteristics in economics. Up to now, three types of goods have been established : experience goods, search goods, and credence goods. Quality uncertainty shared by all agents in a market allows us to propose a new class of goods : controversial goods.
