Abstract

The relationships between free trade and the environment are one of the main issues of contention between environmental and ecological economics. The liberalization of international trade facilitates economic growth that causes the deterioration of the environment. On the other hand ecological policy with its autonomous, strict standards could curb trade flows and make the competitive advantage of countries with lower environmental standards. The aim of the article is to show how trade can affect the environment and how environmental concern can work through the trading system to foster development in both rich and poor countries. Broader understanding and awareness of these linkages are fundamental for fair and environmentally sustainable policies and trade flows.
