摘要
本文首先参考Cahuc和Zylberberg(2004)以及Copeland和Taylor(2003)的分析,从理论上得到了劳动对污染品价格,即环境管制的交叉弹性,在数值上与污染品占总成本份额及排放强度成正比,在符号上取决于两种要素的替代效应和收入效应的共同作用。随后采用2001-2007年中国25个工业行业的面板数据验证了交叉价格弹性为正,也就是说劳动与污染品是总的替代品,环境管制加强会促进就业上升;污染排放强度也确实会提高交叉价格弹性,这意味着污染密集型的重化工行业,环境管制加强所引致的就业创造相对较大。
With reference of Cahuc and Zylberberg(2004)and Copeland and Taylor(2003),this paper proposes that the cross-elasticity of labor demand with respect to pollution prices-environmental regulatons is positively correlated with the share of pollution in total cost,i.e.the pollution intensity in value,the sign of which depends on the interaction of the substitution effect and revenue effect.Then we find that the cross elasticity is positive with data from 25 industries through 2001-2007 which means labor and pollution are substitutional and environmental regulations promote employment.Pollution intensity can indeed raise cross elasticity implying that the effect of environmental regulations on employment is significant for heavy chemical sector with intensive pollution.
