贸易和环境政策对一个小型开放经济体的影响，在一个部门产生的污染生产非贸易服务消费的外国游客，进行检查。非贸易品通过旅游业出口，由此产生的旅游业贸易条件效应成为扭曲的另一个来源。关税的增加可能会导致TOT的改善和污染的增加，同时影响福利增强关税政策的条件。此外，污染税改革的福利效果与改革是否改善旅游TOT密切相关。本文还研究了游客消费与国内福利之间的相互作用。
Effects of trade and environmental policies on a small open economy, with pollution generated in a sector producing nontradable services consumed by foreign tourists, are examined. The nontradable good is exported via tourism and the induced tourism terms-of-trade (TOT) effect becomes an additional source of distortion. An increase in tariffs can cause a TOT improvement and an increase in pollution simultaneously, affecting the condition for a welfare-enhancing tariff policy. In addition, the welfare effect of a pollution tax reform is strongly linked to whether the reform improves the tourism TOT. The interactions between tourists' spending and domestic welfare are also examined.
