Produktbeschreibung

The Economics of International Trade and the Environment explores - from an economic standpoint - many of the questions germane to increasing understanding of the interface between international trade and the environment. The chapter authors analyze issues including: the effects of international trade in waste products in the presence of illegal disposal, the nature of environmental policy when market structure and plant locations are endogenous, and ecological dumping. Edited by well-known researchers, this is the only resource that can serve as an effective guide to the theoretical and empirical literature on international trade and the environment.
