Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Consider a policy competition and coordination among exporting and importing countries of an exhaustible resource. Resource exporting revenueis the sole source of income for the exporter and the importing country obtains benefit from consuming the imported resource but suffers from environmental pollution which aggravates progressively as the cumulative amount of excavated resource increases. Then, the exporter determines its export revenue maximizing price of resource, while the importing country imposes a pollution tax so as to maximize the benefit of resource consumption net of social damages from pollution. As the result of this international resource transaction game, the export price of resource gradually decreases but the domestic price of resource in the importing country increases and the demand for resource decreases over time.
