Abstract The contingent valuation (CV) method is one of many economic valuation methods which can be used to estimate the benefits of environmental improvement. Presently, more than fifteen valuation methods are available to put a price on environmental goods (for an overview, see Mitchell and Carson, 1989). Some of these methods can be considered as potential alternatives to the CV method. This chapter reviews their advantages and disadvantages and compares them to the CV method.1
