A Study on the Conservation of Renewable Natural Resources and International Trade

本研究从经济学的角度分析了林业资源、渔业资源等可再生自然资源的保护和可持续利用问题。特别是对这些可再生资源与国际贸易的关系进行了研究。本研究的理论分析表明，世界贸易组织(世贸组织)谈判的渔业补贴新规则对渔业产量和渔业资源存量的影响。它还显示了通过生态标签向消费者披露与产品无关的工艺和生产方法(NPR-PPM)信息的潜在保护主义效应。此外，本研究还通过国际价格效应论证了可再生资源产权对非法收割机的非强制执行从一个国家向另一个国家的传播机制。

This study analyzes the issues of conservation and sustainable use of renewable natural resources, such as forestry resources and fishery resources, from economic point of view. In particular, this study is focused on the relationship between those renewable resources and international trade. The theoretical analysis in this study shows the effects of new disciplines of fisheries subsidies negotiated at the Word Trade Organization(WTO) on fisheries output and fisheries resource stock. It also shows the potential protectionism effects of disclosing information of non-product-related process and production methods(NPR-PPMs) to consumers through eco-labeling. Moreover, this study also demonstrates the propagation mechanism of non-enforcement of property rights over renewable resources against illegal harvesters from one country to another through the international price effect.
