International Trade in Financial Services:The NAFTA Provisions
Author: K. ScheferPublisher: Springer
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
This book examines the new and rapidly developing area of law relating to trade in financial services, with a particular focus on the rules contained in Chapter 14 of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). After a detailed analysis of the relevant provisions and their effect on financial institutions in Canada, Mexico, and the United States, the author examines the impact of the NAFTA rules on the legal position of banks operating in countries outside NAFTA, particularly in the context of the WTO financial services provisions. The book concludes with a chapter on the effects of a potential NAFTA expansion. The book aims to contribute to the development of a new legal and regulatory framework distinct from those of trade and financial services law, and offers a valuable insight into how trade in financial services within a regional trade agreement develops its own legal dynamic. Although the financial services provisions are seen as the cornerstone of NAFTA, until now there has been very little in-depth analysis of these provisions, or of the effects on those not party to NAFTA, in the literature in general. This book's unique approach will make it of considerable interest to practitioners and researchers in international banking, trade and economic law.
NAFTA, Law and Business Review of the Americas
Author: Eating NAFTA
Author: Alyshia GálvezPublisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520965442
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Mexican cuisine has emerged as a paradox of globalization. Food enthusiasts throughout the world celebrate the humble taco at the same time that Mexicans are eating fewer tortillas and more processed food. Today Mexico is experiencing an epidemic of diet-related chronic illness. The precipitous rise of obesity and diabetes—attributed to changes in the Mexican diet—has resulted in a public health emergency. In her gripping new book, Alyshia Gálvez exposes how changes in policy following NAFTA have fundamentally altered one of the most basic elements of life in Mexico—sustenance. Mexicans are faced with a food system that favors food security over subsistence agriculture, development over sustainability, market participation over social welfare, and ideologies of self-care over public health. Trade agreements negotiated to improve lives have resulted in unintended consequences for people’s everyday lives.
Lessons from NAFTA
Author: Luis ServenPublisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 0821383744
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
Analyzing the experience of Mexico under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), 'Lessons from NAFTA' aims to provide guidance to Latin American and Caribbean countries considering free trade agreements with the United States. The authors conclude that the treaty raised external trade and foreign investment inflows and had a modest effect on Mexico's average income per person. It is likely that the treaty also helped achieve a modest reduction in poverty and an improvement in job quality. This book will be of interest to scholars and policymakers interested in international trade and development.
