我们将国际运输的污染排放纳入战略贸易和环境政策的模型中，研究贸易自由化和环境管制对国家福利和环境的影响。我们的模型包括国际运输和最终产品的不完全竞争市场。我们发现，贸易自由化可能会减少每个国家的福利，除非在国际运输的环境法规的某种程度上是到位。当国际贸易开始自由化时，共同排放税率的相互提高可能会改善每个国家的福利。然而，当国际贸易最初受到高度保护时，征收排放税可能会减少福利。
Incorporating pollution emissions from international transportation into a model of strategic trade and environmental policies, we investigate the effect of trade liberalization and environmental regulation on national welfare and the environment. Our model includes imperfectly competitive markets for international transportation and final products. We find that trade liberalization may reduce each country's welfare unless some level of environmental regulation on international transportation is in place. When international trade is liberalized initially, a mutual increase in the common emission tax rates may improve each country's welfare. However, when international trade is highly protected initially, imposing an emission tax may reduce welfare.
