Description ABSTRACTThe optimal research and development of green technology taxes (subsidies) is analyzed in a three-stage game model of an international Cournot duopoly. The governments simultaneously determine the environmental policies in the firststage. In the second stage, the firms simultaneously determine the green technology levels and set the output in the third stage. One firm exists in a home country and one firm exists in a foreign country that produce homogenous goods and export to the third-market country. By assuming that the green technology involves cost-increasing research and development (R&D), the present study finds that green technology is not overused to minimize the total production costs.Keywords: Strategic trade policy; green technology; strategic environmental policyABSTRAKCukai(subsidi) optimal ke atas penyelidikan dan pembangunan teknologi hijau dianalisis dengan model permainan tiga-tingkat bagi persaingan duopoli antarabangsa Cournot. Kerajaan secara serentak menentukan polisi alamsekitar di tingkat pertama. Di tingkat kedua, firma secara serentak menentukan tahap teknologi dan seterusnya jumlah pengeluaran ditentukan pada tingkat ketiga. Sebuah firma di negara domestik dan sebuah lagi di negara luar mengeluar dan mengeksport barangan yang homogen ke negara pasaran ketiga. Dengan andaian teknologi hijau melibatkan penyelidikan dan pembangunan (P&P) dengan kos bertambah, kajian ini mendapati bahawa teknologi hijau tidakdieksploitasi bagi meminimakan kos pengeluaran.Kata kunci: Polisi perdagangan strategik; teknologi hijau; polisi alam sekitar strategik
