Abstract

Mit dem Warentransport sind zahlreiche negative externe Effekte verbunden. Aufgrund eines Marktversagens werden zu viele Güter über weite Strecken transportiert. Maßnahmen zur Internalisierung, wie die Einführung von Auflagen, Verboten sowie Steuern, Abgaben und handelbaren Zertifikaten, zielen darauf ab, die externen Kosten zu berücksichtigen. In einigen Bereichen werden solche Eingriffe jedoch unterlassen. Eine umfassende Literaturrecherche zeigt, dass die mit dem Warentransport verbundenen externen Kosten nur teilweise internalisiert und somit preiswirksam sind. Mittels eines quantitativen Modells wird in einer Szenarioanalyse untersucht, wie sich eine Internalisierung der externen Kosten von Handelsaktivitäten in Form eines Preisaufschlags auswirken würde. Wie die Ergebnisse zeigen, könnte die Umsetzung von Transportkostenwahrheit im Extra-EU-Handel mit einer leichten Steigerung des realen Bruttoinlandsproduktes und der Beschäftigung in der EU einhergehen, sofern die Einnahmen dieser Handelsaufschläge wieder in den Wirtschaftskreislauf zurückgeführt werden. Die Analyse benennt Handlungsoptionen zur Herstellung von Transportkostenwahrheit im internationalen Handel.
