Abstract

ABSTRACT This article examines the impact of environmental stringency on the pattern of intra-industry trade (IIT) flows of four pollution-intensive industries, that is, pulp and waste paper, lime, cement, and construction materials, iron ore and concentrates, and dyeing and tanning extracts, by utilizing a balanced panel dataset comprising of 36 countries over the period 1990 to 2019. The environmental stringency variable has been estimated from the energy intensity of the trading countries. The results show that the environmental stringency coefficients are highly statistically significant, implying that environmental regulation emerges as an essential indicator of the IIT flows between two trading countries.

环境监管与产业内贸易：实证分析

摘要:本文通过利用包含1990年至2019年36个国家的平衡面板数据集，研究了环境严格程度对四个污染密集型行业(纸浆和废纸、石灰、水泥和建筑材料、铁矿石和精矿以及印染和制革提取物)产业内贸易流动模式的影响。环境严格变量是根据贸易国的能源强度估计出来的。结果表明，环境严格系数在统计上具有高度显著性，这意味着环境监管成为两个贸易国之间工业技术流动的重要指标。
