- Abstract
- Environmental dumping is often viewed as an instrument used by some countries in the attempt to attract foreign investments. Stated otherwise, the delocation of firms would be a major outcome of a stiff environmental policy. In this paper, we study the impact of a strict anti-pollution policy pursued by a government on domestic firms' locational decisions, and determine the main variables that interact with such a policy. Some preliminary welfare implications are also provided.
