The Shipping and Trade of Asia Pacific: An annotated bibliography
Trade Policy in the Asia-Pacific
Author: Vinod K. Aggarwal
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441968334
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
East Asian countries are now pursuing greater formal economic institutionalization, weaving a web of bilateral and minilateral preferential trade agreements. Scholarly analysis of “formal” East Asian regionalism focuses on international political and economic factors such as the end of the Cold War, the Asian financial crisis, or the rising Sino-Japanese rivalry. Yet this work pays inadequate attention to the strategies of individual government agencies, business groups, labor unions, and NGOs across the region. Moreover, most studies also fail to adequately characterize different types of trade arrangements, often lumping together bilateral accords with minilateral ones, and transregional agreements with those within the region. To fully understand this cross-national variance, this book argues that researchers must give greater attention to the domestic politics within East Asian countries and the U.S., involving the interplay of these subnational players. With contributions from leading country and regional trade specialists, this book examines East Asian and American trade strategies through the lens of a domestic bargaining game approach with a focus on the interplay of interests, ideas, and domestic institutions within the context of broader international shifts. With respect to domestic politics, the chapters show how subnational actors engage in lobbying, both of their own governments and through their links to others in the region. They also trace the evolution of interests and ideas over time, helping us to generate a better understanding of historical trends in the region. In addition to scholars of East Asian and comparative regionalism, this book will be of interest to policy-makers concerned with international trade and U.S.-Asia relations, and those interested in understanding the rich trade institutional landscape that we see emerging in the Asia-Pacific.

Strategies for Asia-Pacific Shipping
Author: Jeff Hawkins
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351732323
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
This title was first published in 2000. This text focuses on one geographical and economical area - the Asia-Pacific region, on one type of decision makers - commercial shipowners, and on one type of business strategy - corporate level strategy, to show economic change and how organizations manage that change. This book discusses the challenges that shipowners face to take advantage of that growth. It also looks at the lack of information on strategic decision making that could assist the shipowners in taking advantage of the economic situation. The chapters cover the types of business strategies available and how to select the criteria for selecting one of those strategies.

Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
Endnu en publikation i bibliotekets nyligt indkøbte serie om den australske flådes strategiske opgaver og udvikling. Det hævdes her, at de Asiatiske Stillehavs handelsruter har været af mindre betydning tidligere, men nu (i år 2003) er situationen anderledes, idet handelen stiger voldsomt her. Der overvejes forskellige former for eskortesystemer tillige med imødegåelse af ulovligheder. Endelig omtales forsætlig korruption af udvekslede computerdata.

Trade and Maritime Transport Trends in the Pacific
Author: Asian Development Bank
Publisher: Asian Development Bank
ISBN: 9292624318
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
This study seeks to help fill knowledge gaps on maritime trade in the Pacific. It examines trade flows in Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Timor-Leste, Tonga, and Vanuatu. The study looks at shared constraints, such as the effects of climate change and exposure to external shocks, and identifies synergistic and regional approaches to address them. It aims to inform long-term planning for trade facilitation across the region by identifying key questions for governments and development partners to consider. It also addresses core questions including how trade flows in the region are changing, how growth will impact seaport operations and shipping services, and how trade efficiency can be improved.

The Shipping Anf Trade of Asia Pacific
World Scientific Reference On Asia-pacific Trade Policies (In 2 Volumes)
Author: Kym Anderson
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9813274719
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 1544
Book Description
Protectionism has been placed under the media spotlight, with news headlines generated by populist anti-globalization movements and Donald Trump's term as US President. Such a policy stance is putting at risk unilateral trade reform efforts in the Asia-Pacific region and elsewhere.This two-volume reference work provides a timely update on how far the region has come in opening markets. It analyzes the motivations or ostensible objectives of policies adopted in the past, the changing extent of the domestic price distortions involved, the economic effects of those policies at home and abroad, the political economy forces at work that brought about those policies and their subsequent reform, their consequences for international trade, economic welfare and poverty alleviation, and prospects for sustainable improvements in current policies. Case studies of major East Asian economies and Australia reveal how government priorities to assist farmers versus manufacturers changed over the past century but especially since the 1980s, and how that has affected trade between natural resource-poor and resource-rich economies.This set is highly recommended for those who are interested in the economics and politics of trade policies, agricultural economics, economic development, and food and nutrition security in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond.
