| Abstract: | This paper concerns transboundary environmental problems in the context of an optimal tax model. The authors show that the commodity taxes differ between equilibria because of: (1) transboundary externalities not internalized by national governments, (2) interaction effects between environmental and other policies, (3) labour mobility. |
