Abstract
  • The World Trade Organization (WTO) is among those institutions that advocate free trade in goods, service and capital among nations. This view is not shared universally, however, especially when there are important natural resource, environmental and labor issues at stake. In fact, some countries discourage the exportation of natural resource goods, while others encourage such trade. This paper examines possible explanations for these differences, focusing on the roles of (a) the "taste" for the resource goods in the domestic economy and (b) diminishing returns to labor in the non-resource sectors.
