Abstract

The damage caused to the environment by activities of human beings is a major source of concern in contemporary world politics. While there is increasing awareness about the anthropogenic impact on planet earth, efforts to control and check this damage are thwarted by constraints arising from concerns about such measures adversely affecting economic growth. This scenario places the developing countries of today in a very unenviable position. If they continue on the path of rapid economic expansion, they stand accused of damaging the global environment, and if they try to accommodate environmental concerns, they run the risk of slowing down their economies. This study attempts to explore the linkages between trade and environment in the context of the concerns voiced by developing countries over the impact of such a linkage for their economic well-being.
