Trade, Growth, and the Environment
For the last ten years environmentalists and the trade policy community have engaged in a heated debate over the environmental consequences of liberalized trade. The debate was originally fueled by negotiations over the North American Free Trade Agreement and the Uruguay round of GATT negotiations, both of which occurred at a time when concerns over global warming, species extinction and industrial pollution were rising. Recently it has been inte…
Trade and the Environment
Nowhere has the divide between advocates and critics of globalization been more striking than in debates over free trade and the environment. And yet the literature on the subject is high on rhetoric and low on results. This book is the first to systematically investigate the subject using both economic theory and empirical analysis. Brian Copeland and Scott Taylor establish a powerful theoretical framework for examining the impact of internation…
Is Free Trade Good for the Environment?
This paper investigates how openness to international goods markets affects pollution concentrations. We develop a theoretical model to divide trade's impact on pollution into scale, technique, and composition effects and then examine this theory using data on sulfur dioxide concentrations. We find international trade creates relatively small changes in pollution concentrations when it alters the composition of national output. Estimates of the t…

North-South Trade and the Environment
A simple static model of North-South trade is developed to examine linkages between national income, pollution, and international trade. Two countries produce a continuum of goods, each differing in pollution intensity. We show that the higher income country chooses stronger environmental protection, and specializes in relatively clean goods. By isolating the scale, composition, and technique effects of international trade on pollution, we show t…
Tourism, Welfare and De-industrialization in a Small Open Economy
This paper investigates the effects of an expansion of tourism on welfare, output, and factor prices in the host country using a general equilibrium international trade model. In the absence of taxes, foreign ownership, and distortions, an increase in foreign visitors will increase welfare only if the price of nontradables increases. Factor mobility and foreign ownership tend to reduce the gains from tourism, while commodity taxes tend to increas…
