The Strategic Value of Carbon Tariffs (2016, background): “On the other hand, there are substantial practical and legal costs that would inevitably come with their use (Brewer 2008, Pauwelyn 2007, Howse and Eliason 2008, Charnowitz, Hufbauer and Kim 2009).”
Climate change policy and international trade: Policy considerations in the US (2009, methodology): “While this paper will focus on the US, the US trading partners (notably the EU, China, India, and Brazil) are clearly also important subjects of discussion and are discussed where relevant.”
Embodied Carbon Tariffs (2011, unknown): “From a legal perspective, tariffs are generally not permitted according to trade agreements such as GATT or NAFTA and it is not clear whether environmental tariffs are an exception (Brewer 2008, Pauwelyn 2007, Howse and Eliason 2008, Charnowitz, Hufbauer and Kim 2009, Cosbey et al. 2012).”
How to Design a Border Adjustment for the European Union Emissions Trading System (2010, unknown): “…among the countries depending on whether they have implemented a climate policy, or are committed in a multilateral climate agreement, would certainly be incompatible with the most‐favoured‐ nation principle of the WTO (GATT, Article I) (Godard, 2007; Pauwelyn, 2007).”
Addressing Climate Change with a Comprehensive U.S. Cap-and-Trade System (2008, unknown): “In order to be compatible with World Trade Organization rules, it is key that the burden imposed on imported and domestic goods be roughly comparable, and that there not be 13 discrimination among nations with similar conditions (Frankel 2005; Pauwelyn 2007).”
The Global Effects of Subglobal Climate Policies (2010, background): “(See, e.g., Charnovitz et al. 2009; Pauwelyn 2007; Brewer 2008; Biermann and Brohm 2005; Kommerskollegium 2004; with a summary in Fischer and Fox 2009a).”
EU emissions trading and the cement sector: a spatial competition analysis (2008, background): “Although cap and trade obligations can probably be regarded as legally equivalent to an environmental product tax rather than a producer tax (Pauwelyn, 2007), it would not be politically feasible for the EU to impose a more stringent regime on importers than on indigenous firms.”
