Abstract
The international conference on the social costs of energy, which is reflected in this volume, concentrated on the social costs of electricity production, although many aspects apply to other areas just as well. The relatively narrow focus of the conference reflects the mainstream of the empirical research conducted so far; it should not be misinterpreted as a value judgement on the relative importance of this specific instance of social costs in market economies.
