Climate policy and the intertemporal supply of fossil resources This thesis was written by Christian Beermann while he was a research assistant at the Center for Economic Studies (CES) at the University of Munich. It was completed in December 2014 and accepted as a doctoral thesis by the Department of Economics at the University of Munich in May 2015. The thesis analyses the intertemporal supply reaction of the fossil resource supply side to demand reducing climate policies while explicitly taking into account the global warming problem. The interaction between a climate coalition that can either be global or incomplete comprising only a subset of the worlds countries in the latter case and a representative competitive resource supplier is analysed in a Stackelberg differential game in which the coalition leads.
