本文考察了在一个城市失业的小型开放经济体中，出口税（对加工资源商品）、采集者数量和植树造林政策的影响。出口税增加了城市失业率，但改善了环境质量。这里，最优出口税低于调整后的边际环境损害。减少收割机的数量与征收出口税具有类似的资源配置效果。然而，植树造林政策可以解决城市失业和环境质量之间的权衡，也可以提高一个国家的福利。
This paper examines the effects of an export tax (on a processed resource good), the number of harvesters and an afforestation policy in a small, open economy with urban unemployment. The export tax increases the urban unemployment rate, but improves the quality of the environment. Here, the optimal export tax is lower than the adjusted marginal environmental damage. Reducing the number of harvesters has a similar resource allocation effect to that of an export tax. However, the afforestation policy can resolve the trade‐off between urban unemployment and the quality of the environment and may also improve the welfare of a country.
