Description :
A mobile capital version of the Harris-Todaro model is used to analyze the backward incidence of pollution abatement policies on some key variables of interest. The AA. show that national income may fall as a result of stronger pollution controls. However, more restrictive pollution controls cause the urban rate of unemployment to fall unambiguously.
