摘要本文通过一个两国模型考察了国际运输的环境法规，其中每个国家都有国际运输部门。国际运输产生的污染被视为纯粹的公害。首先，我们表明，一个国家可能会受益于自愿实施严格的环境法规，尽管这一规定具有收缩国际运输部门的效果。第二，我们发现，许可证贸易的两个国家的国际运输部门之间的国际运输进口国受益，而许可证贸易可能会损害国际运输出口国，即使它收到所有的直接收益，从许可证贸易。
ABSTRACT This article examines the environmental regulations of international transport in a two-country model with the international transport sector in each country. International transport generates pollution which is treated as a pure public bad. First, we show that a country may benefit from voluntarily imposing a strict environmental regulation despite this regulation having the effect of shrinking the international transport sector. Second, we find that permit trading between the international transport sectors of two countries benefits an international-transport-importing country, while permit trading may harm an international-transport-exporting country even if it receives all of the direct gains from permit trading.
