Book North American Free Trade

Download or read book North American Free Trade written by Nora Claudia Lustig and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proposed North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) represents a historic change in relations among Canada, Mexico, and the United States. The effect of the agreement on the three economies has generated controversy and some degree of alarm within each country. In this book, noted trade and development experts review the available literature on the effects of NAFTA on the three member countries and the world trading system. They evaluate how NAFTA will affect areas such as economic growth, employment, income distribution, industry, and agriculture in Canada, Mexico, and the United States; and consider the significance the trade agreement holds for the rest of the world. Drusill K. Brown begins the discussion by providing an overview and comparison of the general results from recent studies. Raúl Hinojosa-Ojeda and Sherman Robinson explore in greater detail the potential effects of NAFTA on wages and employment in Mexico and the United States. Sidney Wintrab reviews industry-specific effects of NAFTA, in particular, the environment, the social agenda, and human rights and democracy. Finally, Carlos Alberto Primo Braga considers the implications of NAFTA on the rest of the world. Following each of these chapters, international scholars assess the alternatives and provide recommendations for future research.

Book The North American Free Trade Agreement

Download or read book The North American Free Trade Agreement written by Elgie McFayden and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was signed by President William Jefferson Clinton in 1992. Although NAFTA is a trade and tariff initiative it has profound consequences for labor and the U.S. economy. Since its implementation NAFTA has resulted in the permanent elimination of more than 766,000 employment opportunities for non-degree U.S. workers, compelled various manufacturing companies to relocate to Mexico, increased the trade deficit between the U.S. and Mexico on several occasions since 1994 and led to a decline in real wages among both U.S. and Mexican workers. While the goal of NAFTA is to reduce trade barriers between three nations, the United States, Canada and Mexico, the goal of this research endeavor is to determine the impact of NAFTA on local economies, employment opportunities in specific industries and on wages in the U.S. The premise behind this study is that reducing trade barriers increases competition among manufacturers in the three nations involved and forces U.S. manufacturers to reduce production costs in various ways. The reduction in trade barriers, particularly between the U.S. and Mexico, forces U.S. manufacturers to compete in the market place against a nation with poor labor standards and lower overhead. This clearly has profound consequences for U.S. workers, local economies and employment opportunities. This paper is an attempt to better understand and objectively assess the impact of NAFTA on U.S. workers. This paper relies on multiple statistical procedures including regression analysis to determine the strength of the relationship between the NAFTA legislation and key indicators specific to American workers and local economies.

Book The Mexico U S  Free Trade Agreement

Download or read book The Mexico U S Free Trade Agreement written by Peter M. Garber and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seven contributions in this book examine the potential impact of a North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) with Mexico on the U.S. economy. They cover such key aspects as the general sources of comparative advantage between Mexico and the U.S., regional and local effects on production and employment, and the effect on production in particular industries. The authors start from the premise that the trade agreement will have a small impact on the overall U.S. gross national product because the U.S. economy is large compared to that of Mexico and because there is already much unrestricted trade between the two countries. Several chapters consider how some sources of comparative advantage that cut across industries differential environmental regulations and wage differentials - may affect the outcome. These are followed by chapters that assess the locational effects on U.S. production, either from the viewpoint of which metropolitan areas will gain employment or of the scale effects-transportation cost-tradeoff. Concluding chapters address the effect of the NAFTA on several individual U.S. sectors such as agriculture, automobiles, and financial services. Peter M. Garber is Professor of Economics at Brown University. Contents: Introduction, Peter M. Garber. Environmental Impacts of a North American Free Trade Agreement, Gene M. Grossman, Alan B. Krueger.
