説明

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>We examine the substitutability of waste and scrap exported from different countries by estimating the export demand functions of China. In particular, we focus on the export of <jats:italic>other ferrous waste and scrap</jats:italic> (HS code 720449) and <jats:italic>other waste, parings and scrap of plastics</jats:italic> (HS code 391590). It is shown that the substitutability of these wastes and scraps is weak among the exporting countries. Our empirical results imply that a uniform ban on trading hazardous waste, represented by the Basel Ban, could be an inefficient environmental policy.</jats:p>
