Abstract
Prior to noncooperative choices of abatement of a transboundary pollut ant, a technologically advanced country considers making an unconditio nal transfer of abatement technology to its less-advanced rival. Even though technological aid is given unconditionally and abatement strate gies are chosen noncooperatively, in a number of plausible circumstanc es, a transfer of a superior control technology will induce Pareto-sup erior pollution abatement.
