Overview

This text assesses the trade and environment debate as viewed by a team of researchers in developing countries. It covers international negotiations on the environment and analyzes how these affect developing country concerns. It dissects forestry and agriculture, two sectors crucial to developing countries, and reviews the contribution made by regional integration schemes. A case study on South Africa surveys exporters' concerns with environmentally motivated measures in international markets and another paper reviews the contribution of voluntary market initiatives, such as ecolabelling and international standards.
