Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illuminates the major economic and political factors that have led to the development of a particular pattern of trade in forest products, and it examines and compares the legal structures within which this trade takes place. Standard economic and political methods of analysis are used to study the history of this trade, including such recent developments as the Free Trade Agreement. Several of the chapters focus on two recent trade disputes involving Canadian exports of shakes and shingles and of softwood lumber to the United States. These disputes are instructive for understanding not only the politics of trade but also important economic issues such as the measurement and impact of timber subsidies. In addition, the authors consider the factors affecting foreign market share, and the burden of tariffs and export taxes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forest products are among the leading traditional resource-based economic contributors in both Canada and the U.S. The dependence of both countries on the U.S. market for wood products has created periods of tension and controversy, with the issues of protectionism and of changing structure and maturing markets of particular significance as the Canadian-U.S. Free Trade Agreement moves toward full implementation. This paper discusses issues in a global context, identifies the national responses to using the forest resource, and discusses public policies. Elements of forest sector policy discussed include consumption, adequacy of raw material supply, employment and income, contribution to the international balance of payments, and environmental values. Institutional differences are identified, as well as the globalization of forest product markets and the Free Trade Agreement, and the estimated effects of the Agreement.
Download or read book Postwar Trends in U S Forest Products Trade written by Roger A. Sedjo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-09-16 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the end of World War II, the United States had become well integrated into the world markets for forest products. No longer can domestic prices of forest products be viewed as being wholly determined by domestic demand and supply, nor even by North American supply and demand, but must be viewed in a worldwide context. Originally published in 1980, this work provides a comprehensive overview of the nature of global forestry, particularly as it pertains to international trade flows of forest products, and analyses the role of the United States in a global context. This is a valuable resource for any student or researcher interested in environmental studies, global trade relations, and foreign market development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of the long-standing Canada-U.S. lumber trade dispute and the current pressure on the world's forests as a renewable energy source, much attention has been directed toward the modelling of international trade in wood products. Two types of trade models are described in this book: one is rooted in economic theory and mathematical programming, and the other consists of two econometric/statistical models--a gravity model rooted in theory and an approach known as GVAR that relies on time series analyses. The purpose of the book is to provide the background theory behind models and facilitate readers in easily constructing their own models to analyse policy questions that they wish to address, whether in forestry or some other sector. Examples in the book are meant to illustrate how models can be used to say something about a variety of issues, including identification of the gains and losses to various players in the North American softwood lumber business, and the potential for redirecting sales of lumber to countries outside the United States. The discussion is expanded to include other products besides lumber, and used to examine, for example, the effects of log export restrictions by one nation on all other forestry jurisdictions, the impacts of climate policies as they relate to the global forest sector, and the impact of oil prices on forest product markets throughout the world. This book will appeal to practising economists and researchers who wish to examine various policies that affect international trade, whether their interest is local or international in scope. Because the book provides the theoretical bases underlying various models, students and practitioners will find this a valuable reference book or supplementary textbook.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper briefly examines Canada's production of forest products between 1961 and 1989, and analyzes Canada's evolving forest product trade patterns since 1970. A constant market share methodology is used to analyze export patterns of Canadian forest products. Within each of four product categories (lumber, wood panels, wood pulp, and paper products) Canadian production is noted in three ways: percent share relative to global production; percent share within each type of forest product; and annual compound growth rates. Changes in exports are attributed to four factors: market share, commodity mix, market mix, and an adaptation effect.
