本文利用多地区、多部门的可计算一般均衡模型，分析了国际排放交易（IET）对劳动力市场扭曲的影响。我们构建了四个独立的模型，其中包含几个不同的劳动力市场规范：（1）没有劳动力市场扭曲的模型;（2）劳动力市场中存在税收相互作用效应的模型;（3）最低工资模型;（4）工资曲线决定工资的模型。我们使用这些模型来分析IET的影响如何根据模型规格的变化。分析的主要结果如下。首先，我们发现，在没有劳动力市场扭曲的情况下，IET为模型中的所有参与者带来收益。其次，即使在劳动力市场扭曲的模型中，排放许可证的进口商也很可能受益。相反，我们表明，从IET福利损失的可能性是不小的出口许可证。特别是，在最低工资和工资曲线模型中，我们发现排放许可证的出口商很可能处于不利地位。然而，这也取决于所涉区域。例如，中国可能会在国际贸易条约下遭受损失，而俄罗斯可能会受益。最后，如果我们实施政策，以减轻劳动力市场扭曲的同时，排放监管，所有地区都从IET受益。
Using a multi-region, multi-sector computable general equilibrium model, this paper analyzes the effects of international emissions trading (IET) with a focus on labor market distortions. We construct four separate models with several different labor market specifications: (1) a model without labor market distortions; (2) a model with taxinteraction effects in the labor market; (3) a model with a minimum wage; and (4) a model in which a wage curve determines wages. We use these models to analyze how the effects of IET change according to model specification. The main results from the analysis are as follows. First, we found that IET generates gains for all participants in the model without labor market distortions. Second, even in the models with labor market distortions, importers of emissions permits are highly likely to benefit. Conversely, we show that the possibility of a welfare loss from IET is not as small for exporters of permits. In particular, in the minimum wage and wage curve models, we found that the exporters of emissions permits are likely to be disadvantaged. However, this also depends on the region in question. For example, China is likely to suffer under IET, whereas Russia is likely to benefit. Finally, if we implement policies to alleviate labor market distortion simultaneously with emissions regulation, all regions receive benefit from IET.
