Download or read book Open Regionalism and Trade Liberalization written by Ross Garnaut and published by Institute of Southeast Asian. This book was released on 1996 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open Regionalism is regional economic co-operation without discrimination against countries outside the region. The concept grew from the experience of rapid growth, and expanding trade and investment across national borders, in East Asia and the Pacific. It became the guiding idea of Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation. It is now recognized as being the means through which the growing appeal of regional trading arrangements can be reconciled with a flourishing global trade system within the framework of the new World Trade Organization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, regionalism appears to have emerged as a major new force in the world. This book puts it in its historical context.

Download or read book Regionalism across the North South Divide written by Jean Grugel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-12-16 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to most studies of regionalism, Grugel and Hout focus on countries not currently at the core of the global economy, including Brazil and Mercosur, Chile, South East Asia, China, South Africa, the Maghreb, Turkey and Australia. What seems clear from this original analysis is that far from being peripheral, these countries are forming regional power blocs of their own, which could go on to hold the balance of power in the new world order.
Download or read book Open Regionalism in a World of Continental Trade Blocs written by Mr.Jeffrey A. Frankel and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1998-02-01 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continental trade blocs are emerging in many parts of the world almost in tandem. If trade blocs are required to satisfy the McMillan criterion of not lowering trade volume with outside countries, they have to engage in a dramatic reduction of trade barriers against non-member countries. That may not be politically feasible. On the other hand, in a world of simultaneous continental trade blocs, an open regionalism in which trade blocs undertake relatively modest external liberalization can usually produce Pareto improvement.
Download or read book Regionalism Multilateralism and Deeper Integration written by Robert Z. Lawrence and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2000-07-26 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, international economic liberalization has been pursued through both multilateral and regional arrangements. In the Uruguay Round, more than one hundred governments pledged their commitment to greater open trade in goods and services, and established new rules under the enforcement of the World Trade Organization. At the same time, however, many regional arrangements have been negotiated--including the European Union and the North American Free Trade Agreement. Nonetheless, controversy still rages about these arrangements. Are regional arrangements stumbling blocks or, in fact building blocks for a more integrated and successful international economy? In this book, Robert A. Lawrence addresses this question and explains both sides of the debate. A volume of Brookings' Integrating National Economies Series
