Effects of Transboundary Pollution on the Mode of International Trade of a Polluting Good

Abstract

By analyzing a strategic interaction between environmentally‐concerned governments, we examine how the competition mode of international polluting oligopoly is determined. We show that a resulting form of competition depends on the magnitudes of marginal damage costs and cross‐border spillover as well as on the degrees of similarities in these environment‐related parameters.
