Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: The SADC Protocol on Trade lays the foundation for the planned free trade area in the SADC region. Its ratification is expected in the near future and therefore the question arises in how far the creation of the free trade area will affect the patterns of intraregional trade. After an examination of the framework of preferential and free trade agreements in the region this study employs a customised methodology based on Viner's theory of customs unions in order to identify those areas of trade that will be affected by trade creation or trade diversion effects. I have examined the trade creation and trade diversion potential of the most relevant goods for each of the twelve SADC countries, resolved to a 2 digit HS code level. These results were then put into relation to the overall macroeconomic situation in each country. There were a number of data problems that make the findings of this study less meaningful. However, to some extent this report can be seen as a best possible approximation and as a starting point for further and more detailed research. The overall findings can be summed up as follows: · South Africa is not going to be the only winner from the free trade area and especially its textile and clothing sector might suffer as a result. · There are virtually no trade creation and trade diversion effects to be expected for the BLNS countries but there is a good possibility of additional exports. Therefore, they are likely to profit the most. · Angola and Mozambique will probably experience the strongest trade creation and trade diversion effects. This will be triggered mainly by free trade with South Africa and the fact that their industrial base is very weak and has just started recovering. Zusammenfassung: Das SADC Handelsprotokoll ist die Grundlage für die geplante Freihandelszone in der SADC Region und wird voraussichtlich in Kürze ratifiziert. Es stellt sich daher die Frage, inwieweit sich die Schaffung dieser Freihandelszone auf den Handel innerhalb der Region auswirken wird. Nach einer Untersuchung der Handelsabkommen innerhalb der Region wird eine Methodik verwendet, die auf Viners Theorie der Zollunionen basiert, um jene Bereiche des regionalen Handels zu identifizieren, die von handelsschaffenden und handelsumlenkenden Effekten betroffen werden. Ich habe das Potential für handelsschaffende und handelsumlenkende Effekte der wichtigsten Güter, aufgeschlüsselt nach zweistelligen HS Codes, für alle [...]

U.S.-Africa Trade Flows and Effects of the Uruguay Round Agreements and U.S. Trade and Development Policy : Fourth Annual Report

Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 525
Book Description
African regional trade integration has grown exponentially in the last decade. This book is the first comprehensive analysis of the legal framework within which it is being pursued. It will fill a huge knowledge gap and serve as an invaluable teaching and research tool for policy makers in the public and private sectors, teachers, researchers and students of African trade and beyond. The author argues that African Regional Trade Agreements (RTAs) are best understood as flexible legal regimes particularly given their commitment to variable geometry and multiple memberships. He analyzes the progress made toward trade liberalization in each region, how the RTAs are financed, their trade remedy and judicial regimes, and how well they measure up to Article XXIV of GATT. The book also covers monetary unions as well as intra-African regional integration, and examines free trade agreements with non-African regions including the Economic Partnership Agreements with the European Union.
