The relationship between economic growth and the environment is not well understood: we have only limited understanding of the basic science involved and very limited data. Because of these difficulties it is especially important to develop a series of relatively simple theoretical models that...

This paper sets out a general equilibrium pollution and trade model to provide a framework for examination of the trade … and environment debate. The model contains as special cases a canonical pollution haven model as well as the standard … Heckscher-Ohlin-Samuelson factor endowments model. We draw quite heavily from trade theory, but develop a simple pollution …

This paper sets out a theory of how openness to international goods markets affects pollution concentrations. We … develop a theoretical model to divide trade's impact on pollution into scale, technique, and composition effects and then … examine this theory using data on sulfur dioxide concentrations when it alters the composition, and hence the pollution …

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of power density [Watts/m²] into economics. By introducing an explicit spatial structure into a simple general equilibrium model we are able to show how the power density of available energy resources determines the extent of energy...
