DESCRIPTION:The Competence Centre for International Economics Research (FIW) kindly inv
 ites to participate in the Seminar in International Economics on the topic 
 The heterogeneous trade effects of environmental measures Fabio Santeramo U
 niversity of Foggia & European University Institute Abstract: Technical reg
 ulations are numerous and growing\, but less transparent than price measure
 s. They are frequently used in support of the environmental protection\, be
 cause of challenges posed by climate change\, but little is known about the
  trade-effects of environmental measures. Relying on a unique and original 
 dataset of technical measures notified for environmental reasons\, we inves
 tigate their effects on trade patterns. We show that environmental measures
  naturally hinder bilateral trade flows\, but tend to favour flows originat
 ing in trading partners with a strong economic and political influence\, su
 ch as high income countries or members of the Group of 20 more industrialis
 ed countries\, who tend to dominate the notification processes. This sugges
 ts that\, while the objective of these measures is to improve environmental
  outcomes\, they shape trade in favour of wealth and industrialised partner
 s who have better financial and technical means to comply with requirements
  of technical measures. This presentation is based on a paper co-authored w
 ith Emilia Lamonaca and Charlotte Emlinger. The presentation if available\,
  will be posted after the event. Fabio Santeramo is Associate Professor in 
 Economics at the University of Foggia and MSCA Research Fellow at the Europ
 ean University Institute. Santeramo coordinates projects on the links betwe
 en the Agri-food Sector\, Trade and Environment. He is coordinating the Med
 ECC Special Report on Climate-Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystems nexus. Currently
  serving in the Advisory Board of Food Policy\, the leading journal in Agri
 cultural Economics\, Santeramo is Chair of the International Agricultural T
 rade Research Consortium. His works focus on agricultural markets\, trade\,
  and policies\, and have been published in top-field journals such as Journ
 al of Agricultural Economics\, European Review of Agricultural Economics\, 
 Energy Policy\, Health Policy. The seminar series is organised by the Vienn
 a Institute for International Economic Studies (wiiw) in co-operation with 
 FIW. The seminar provides a forum for presentation and discussion of recent
  academic research in the field of international economics.
