Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: This paper examines the proliferation of environmental policy conditions within bilateral and small regional trade agreements and assesses the extent to which those conditions affect regulatory standards and their implementation among trading partners, with emphasis on trade agreements the U.S., Canada, and the EU have struck with developing countries. It explains how and why environmental conditionality has become a standard component of these trade agreements. It also examines how unilateral environmental regulation in the large markets of these rich countries is altering environmental policies within export-dependent developing countries. While Parties to the World Trade Organization have been at a prolonged impasse over whether and how to incorporate environmental considerations into global trade agreements, in many cases by explicit intent of both rich and poorer countries, a recent spike in bilateral and regional trade agreements, both formal and tacit, has de facto supplanted WTO talks in this area. Finally, the paper assesses normative consequences. Some observers note approvingly that bilateral and regional trade has become a significant force to improve the capacity for and transparency of environmental law enforcement in countries where implementation has been historically weak. Another important consequence, however, is that the comparatively stronger bargaining position of rich countries in bilateral as opposed to multilateral trade negotiations has imprinted environmental policies on large areas of the developing world that serve the interests and political agendas of rich countries without necessarily addressing environmental priorities of their poorer counterparts.
