Abstract: | This paper discusses the ecological-economic implications of deregulation of trade as promoted by the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade /GATT/. This induces both environmental and socio-economic factors such as standards of living and equity. We outline fifteen overlapping problems with deregulation or free trade. There are many environmental problems which cannot be resolved equitably, efficiently or sustainably by unregulated markets, and that there is no alternative to public intervention in certain situations. |
