abstract: 'International trade has increased over time, both in volume and as a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
share of gross domestic product, and international trade agreements have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
proliferated. This rise in trade has many potential impacts on health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outcomes. Trade raises living standards, allowing for greater spending
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on education and medical care, which improves health. However, trade may
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
worsen intranational inequality, leading to increased stress and adverse
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
impacts on mortality. Labor markets are affected by international trade,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and the resulting changes in unemployment, working hours, and injury
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rates have an impact on health outcomes. Trade may induce adverse
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
environmental impacts, such as increased pollution, leading to worsened
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health. Reductions in prices as a result of changes to trade policy may
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
increase the consumption of unhealthy goods, including tobacco and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
processed foods, thus worsening the prevalence of noncommunicable
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
diseases. Trade agreements may affect the ability of governments to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
legislate health-improving policies. Overall, international trade and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
trade agreements may have both positive and negative effects on health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outcomes; government policy may be used to ameliorate any adverse
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
effects of trade.'
