Abstract

L'article propose d'associer la certification d'origine à une barrière non tarifaire dans les échanges internationaux. En effet, la certification d'origine se traduit souvent à la fois par une restriction quantitative et par une subvention implicite de la qualité. On considère le modèle canonique de concurrence internationale dans lequel une firme domestique et une firme étrangère se concurrencent pour la vente de leur produit sur le marché domestique. Dans ce cadre, on montre comment l'adoption de la certification peut permettre à la firme domestique de se positionner en leader de qualité. Si, au contraire, elle offre le bien de qualité plus faible, le surplus des consommateurs peut être amélioré.
