Este artículo describe el nacimiento de la regulación de contaminantes atmosféricos, así como su transformación, que de estar bajo control estatal transitó a un régimen basado en instrumentos de mercado. Muestra la paulatina mercantilización del abordaje de los problemas de contaminación aérea, cuyos orígenes se encuentran en Estados Unidos y que se condensó en tres momentos históricos: la conformación del Emission Trading Program (1982), el programa Average between refineries (1985) y el Acid Rain Program (1995). Estos experimentos, dentro del régimen de regulación ambiental de comando y control, desembocaron en la conformación del primer mercado de emisiones atmosféricas contaminantes en la historia mundial y abrieron el camino de un nuevo régimen de regulación ambiental conocido como tope y comercio.

After the national Acid Rain Program, Southern California's tradeable permit system RECLAIM is the second comprehensive attempt in US environmental policy to create a workable system of tradeable permits. In this paper analyses of the most important regulations, of the environmental, legal, and economic background, and of the first results of this program are provided. The focus is on the conditions under which this instrument of environmental policy can be effective in practice.

Trading Program

The most ambitious application ever attempted of a market-based approach to environmental protection has been for the control of acid rain under the Clean Air Act amendments of 1990, which established a sulfur dioxide allowance trading program. This essay identifies lessons that can be learned from this grand experiment in economically oriented environmental policy. The author examines positive political economy lessons, asking why this system was adopted from acid-rain control in 1990, and he considers normative lessons that can be learned from the program's structure and performance, focusing on lessons for the design and implementation of future systems.
