Thailand has used trade policy as an instrument for boosting economic growth. Trade expansion may induce an environmental degradation in Thailand. This study employs the Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) analysis to measure the impacts of trade reforms on the environment of Thailand. Results show that trade reform is good for economic growth but not favorable to the environment. An environmental regulation should be concerned with mitigating environmental degradation. A combined policy between trade reform and moderate environmental tax is a favorable solution both for economic and environment. However, the policy should be enforced with adequate consideration. Too strict environmental policy may lead to economic contraction.}, pages = {63--80}, title = {Rethinking the Relationship between International Trade and Environment: Thailand as a Case Study}, volume = {45}, year = {2015} }
