Bilateral Trade Agreements in the Asia-Pacific
Author: Vinod Aggarwal
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136633456
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
The Asia-Pacific region has witnessed a rapid rise in bilateral preferential trade agreements at the beginning of the twenty-first century. This trend could have potentially dramatic effects on the trading patterns of countries in the transpacific region and beyond. Some argue that these accords will spur multilateral negotiations, while others believe that they will irreparably damage the trading system. Bilateral Trade Agreements in the Asia-Pacific examines the underlying political and economic factors driving these accords, based on a novel theoretical framework. Experts then provide overviews of political and economic trends in the region as well as detailed analysis of the trade strategies of Japan, China, Singapore, South Korea, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand, the United States and Mexico. By systematically evaluating and assessing the driving forces underlying the turn to bilateral trade agreements in the Asia-Pacific, this book provides the first comprehensive analysis of this crucial phenomenon. Growing numbers of countries both in the region and elsewhere in the world are now considering further negotiation of bilateral trade accords. Understanding how these arrangements will fit or conflict with existing institutions in the Asia-Pacific and the WTO makes this book imperative reading for policy-makers and scholars.

Pacific Dynamism and the International Economic System
Author: Marcus Noland
Publisher: Peterson Institute
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 428
Book Description
This edited volume contains papers presented at the Twentieth Pacific Trade and Development Conference. The editors contribute an introductory article; a dozen additional papers are organized into three sections: the international economic system, regional institutional arrangements, and systemic implications of Pacific dynamism. In the first section John Whalley has an insightful article on GATT, and Soogil Young discusses the place of an East Asian trading bloc in a global economic system. In the next section, H. Edward English and Murray G. Smith examine NAFTA and conclude that NAFTA may foster the formation of new regional trading arrangements in the Asia-Pacific region. Peter Drysdale and Ross Garnaut survey and analyze trade in the Pacific region and see additional gains from trade liberalization in the region. The final section of this work contains articles on direct investment, the Japanese yen, human capital flows, environmental issues, and post-Cold War security implications. An excellent work for those interested in the economic dynamics of the Pacific region.

Trade and Structural Change in Pacific Asia
Author: Graciela Chichilnisky
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book is a collection of papers by various authors focusing on the economies of Pacific Asia. The papers were produced for a 1984 seminar sponsored by the NBER and the Malaysian Economic Association. The book is thorough, and the articles well written and reasonably connected with each other, which reflects very good editorial work. The volume assembles the established wisdom concerning a group of countries that have been extremely successful following rather unconventional strategies, blending for example export promotion with elements of a planned economy and therefore divorcing the conventional association between export promotion and liberal markets. There are two types of papers here: the first addresses more or less theoretical issues of trade and development with applications to countries of East and Southeast Asia. These deal inter alia with issues such as the "secret" behind the prosperity of the Gang of Four (South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore) as well as the meaning and success of export-oriented strategies, and more generally of trade patterns based on the theory of relative advantages in factor use (i.e., the international division of labor). The second type of papers are less theoretical, and refer to particular issues in particular countries. There are "case studies" of, for example, Singapore trade in manufactures and trade patterns in Taiwan and Thailand.
