描述 | The theoretical claims for eco-tariffs are rigorously analyzedwithin a unified framework formed of an international trade modelenriched with both a domestic and a global externality. During thecourse of the analysis the model is modified to analyze an array ofcontexts for which eco-tariffs have been claimed to improveenvironmental quality or welfare. The circumstances and conditions arecharacterised under which such tariffs can be shown to improveenvironmental quality and social welfare, taking account of generalequilibrium effects. The theoretical results are applied in a policyanalysis of eco-tariffs and other trade instruments in the context ofdomestic and global environmental policy in order to assess therelevance of the eco-tariffs that have been subjected to thetheoretical analysis. Finally, the GATT/WTO rules and regulations arepresented, since to date these have banned the use of eco-tariffs. Therules and regulations are mapped against the theoretical results toshow which rules ought to be changed. |
