Trade, Environment, and the Millennium

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In January 1995, the World Trade Organization (WTO) became the successor to GATT-the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. The new organization was the result of years of negotiations on improving the rules-based trading system that oversees international trade. While most trade officials and others who have a direct interest in multilateral trade policy consider this multilateral system to be a major contributor to the enormous growth of world trade and income over the past half century, the WTO is viewed with suspicion and even animosity by many environmentalists. The criticisms focus on many aspects of the WTO. Some maintain that trade liberalization under WTO auspices has led to an environmentally harmful exploitation of natural and other resources, and others argue that the WTO hampers governments in pursuing environmentally friendly policies. The WTO is seen as increasingly extending its reach into areas-particularly through its dispute settlement process-that go beyond what… [detailed...]

Jean-Paul Azam
Trade, Exchange Rate, and Growth in Sub-Saharan Africa

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this sophisticated yet accessible analysis of the open economies of Sub-Saharan Africa, Jean-Paul Azam analyses international trade, exchange rate issues, and longer-term growth, taking due account of the distinctive features of African economies. In particular, he examines the informal as well as the formal institutional frameworks which prevail in different African countries and which affect their macroeconomic behaviour. Key issues explored include tariffs and quotas, membership of the CFA Zone, and currency convertibility or inconvertibility, as well as smuggling, corruption, parallel markets in goods and currencies, ethnic diversity and redistribution. Case studies of important macroeconomic events are used to establish basic stylized facts from which the theory emerges, and special attention is paid to the consequences of macroeconomic events for the poor, via the food market or traditional redistribution mechanisms.

Trade, Innovation, Environment (Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (Feem) Series on Economics, Ene)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book covers some of the most relevant issues in the new environmental economics. Its main emphasis is on the international dimension of environmental phenomena, which implies the necessity of designing properly coordinated economic/environmental policies. The issue of policy coordination is analysed both in the case where environmental externalities arise because of cross-country and global pollution flows, and in the case where trade and competitiveness effects induced by environmental regulation affect countries` relative economic performance. The context in which these issues are analysed relies on recent developments of game theory, industrial economics, international trade where imperfect competition and governments` strategic interactions are accounted for. Recognizing that traditional environmental policy tools are not sufficient to regulate the present environment--economy interactions leads to appraise the effects of more sophisticated policy mixes. In particular,… [detailed...]

Trade, Investment, and Development in the Middle East and North Africa: Engaging with the World (Orientations in Development)

2003 y.
Publisher: World Bank Publications
Description: Trade, Investment, and Development in the Middle East and North Africa: Engaging with the World describes why expanding trade and investment is vital for this region. The greatest economic challenge is to create enough jobs for its rapidly growing labor force, which is increasingly young and educated, to ward off threats to social and political stability inherent in high unemployment rates. This effort requires higher, and more sustainable, economic growth than has been achieved in the past two decades. Expanding trade and private investment offers the best hope. The potential is enormous given the region`s human resources, skills, location, history, and opportunities. The book analyzes why the region has yet to tap fully into the rich stream of global commerce and investment--and the measures needed to do so, including improvements in the domestic investment climate and reforms in the policies of the region`s trading partners. Its findings will appeal to policymakers in the… [detailed...]

Goldberg shows how critical decisions affecting Egypt`s integration into the world economy were based on clear understandings of what policies were most likely to advance the interests of leading interest groups, with results that continue to bedevil Egypt`s political economytoday. This is a tale of paradoxes and unintended consequences of rational action. [detailed...]

Trade--The Engine of Growth in East Asia

Description: The New Industrializing Countries (NICs) of the Pacific Basin--Taiwan, South Korea, Hong Kong, and Singapore--differ in many ways such as their languages, cultures, political and economic systems. What is interesting is what economic characteristic they hold in common. Each has succeeded in defying in what Chow and Kellman define as a `vicious circle of poverty` following World War II. They provide a comprehensive analysis of the economic factors which fueled the `engine of growth.` The authors combine adetailed body of empirical data with an unusually broad theoretical framework to highlight the factors in each industry and market which contributed to the success of these countries. The work examines and forecasts potential competition from the surrounding geographic area in specific markets. It contrasts the development of the NICs with Japan, with `next tier NICs,` and with each other in markets, including those of the United States and the forthcoming united Europe.

Trade-Offs: An Introduction to Economic Reasoning and Social Issues

2005 y.
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
Description: When economists wrestle with issues such as unemployment, inflation, or budget deficits, they do so by incorporating an impersonal, detached mode of reasoning. But economists also analyze issues that, to others, do not typically fall within the realm of economic reasoning, such as organ transplants, cigarette addiction, smoking in public, and product safety. `Trade-Offs` is an introduction to the economic approach to analyzing these controversial public policy issues. Harold Winter provides readers with the analytical tools needed to identify and understand the trade-offs associated with these topics. By considering both the costs and benefits of potential policy solutions, Winter stresses that real-world policy decision making is best served by an explicit recognition of as many trade-offs as possible. Intellectually stimulating yet accessible and entertaining, `Trade-Offs` will be appreciated by students of economics, public policy, health administration, political science,… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: The recently concluded Uruguay Round of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) will undoubtedly lead to a fundamental transformation of the world trading system as an instrument of a global economy. In Traders in a Brave New World, Ernest H. Preeg, a distinguished former U.S. diplomat and trade negotiator, presents a blow-by-blow account of the Uruguay Round, an examination of the historical context in which it took place, and an insider`s assessment of the agreement`s future impact on the international trading system. Preeg places the Uruguay Round in the broader context of global politics and economics, showing how changes in the world order--from the collapse of communism to dramatic economic reforms in developing countries--influenced both the topics of negotiations and their outcome. He then assesses the final GATT agreement as a case study in international negotiations and evaluates its probable effects on income and trade. Finally, Preeg… [detailed...]
