The observed increasing burden of cancer can be considered as good news, being the outcome of better life conditions and higher life expectancy. At the same time, changes in life-styles (e.g. diet, smoking, physical inactivity) and environmental quality brought about by economic development are also important risk factors in cancer. This piece of research aims at empirically assessing the role of economic development in new cancer cases (incidence). Consistently with the literature on the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC), we adopt a coarse-grained approach rather than zooming into the very complicated determinants of the phenomenon under inquiry. The novelty is that we focus on impacts on humans rather than on pressures such as emissions...
