Abstract

Nous testons en laboratoire trois instruments destinés à réguler l'exploitation d'une ressource commune par des agents hétérogènes : un système de taxes et de subventions, des quotas individuels transférables et non transférables. Nous proposons un modèle dans lequel l'objectif assigné à ces instruments est de réduire l'exploitation de la ressource par rapport à un régime de libre accès, sans pour autant diminuer le profit des utilisateurs. Si chacun desinstruments permet d'atteindre en moyenne l'objectif de réduction, les instruments n'ont pas les mêmes effets sur les niveaux et la répartition des profits. Le système de taxes et de subventions permet de sélectionner les utilisateurs les plus efficaces, mais accroît l'inégalitédes profits individuels. En revanche, aucun instrument ne permet une amélioration des profits au sens strict de Pareto, même si selon ce critère, les deux instruments de marché sont plus performants que les quotas non-transférables.
