Download or read book A New Trade Policy for the United States written by Mario Arana and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amidst the worst economic crisis to hit the United States and the global economy in over 70 years, the role of foreign trade remains clouded in political debate and controversy; the United States needs to resume an active engagement of the international trading system and address a variety of new challenges. Accordingly, Latin Americaʹs extensive experience of free trade with the United States and familiarity with political and social controversy over free trade agreements provides a rich environment in which to examine propositions about the effects of free trade and free trade agreements (FTAs). This report contends that FTAs must be fully integrated into the development agenda of Latin American countries instead of acting as a substitute. Rather than re-negotiate, the United States should support full implementation of the existing agreements by strengthening capacity-building resources. The report also explains how emphasis on labor litigation has done little to create policies that improve worker conditions in Latin America, and claims that market-friendly inducements in FTAs can lead to stronger environmental protections in these agreements.
Download or read book How to Do Successful Business in Latin America written by Axel Lopez and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-07 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In case you are not aware of, a diverse consumer market of more than 550 million people live in Latin America! These people, we all call Latinos, live, work and spend money, just south of the U.S. Border! However, I am not talking about Mexico, although is included, but there are many other countries, territories, islands and protectorates in the Latin American Region that await for your business. Within this huge market, there is hunger and demand for American and Foreign goods, technology, know-how and services. You might know the existence of plenty multilateral and bilateral free-trade agreements between U.S. and many Latin American countries, that are designed to offer your business a competitive edge over other European and Asian rivals. These trade agreements should propel you to enter or expand your business in Latin American. You need to know, that Free trade agreements help you compete on prices, quality, as well as offering prompt delivery of your goods and services to these markets. I have witnessed over my 20 years of traveling to the region, how U.S. technology, management, know-how, goods, and services from a wide range of industries have contributed significantly to the growth of Latin American economies. Countries like Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Brazil and Costa Rica, no name a few, actively solicit foreign trade investments from American companies. Another benefit to these trade agreements is consumer and industrial products find their way to markets and many factories are settled in Latin America to promote business and employment opportunities. Many countries of Latin America, now, enjoy political, government and economic stability unseen in past years. I want to emphasize that you can view the Latin American market as a conglomeration of markets, people, language, religions, economy, laws, cultures, and currencies that all may seem similar, but each country is very unique and different to deal with. Now you can learn from experience and existing resources How to go about doing successful business in the region! Lets get started!
Download or read book Trading Promises for Results written by Mauricio Mesquita Moreira and published by Inter-American Development Bank. This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty years after the region embarked on large-scale liberalization, trade policy could have been expected to become all but irrelevant. Instead, a mismatch between expectations and what could realistically be delivered set the stage for much of the disappointment, skepticism, and fatigue regarding trade policy in the region, particularly in the early 2000s. By setting the bar unrealistically high, governments and analysts made trade policies an easy target for special interests that were hurt by liberalization and for those ideologically opposed to free trade. The most immediate victims were the more tangible growth and welfare gains, whose relevance was lost amid the noise of grandiose visions.
Download or read book The Politics of Trade in Latin American Development written by Steven E. Sanderson and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this innovative synthesis and reconstruction of the role of trade in Latin American development, the author asks what have been the political terms of trade in Latin America, and why have they differed so much from the multilateral and national trade politics of the advanced capitalist countries, especially the United States? He shows, in great detail, how a new conceptual approach to this question can help us to understand why, and with what limits, Latin America now seems ready to accept the mantle of free trade. This book is a unique attempt to link some of the most provocative hypotheses from the literatures of international trade, development, regional economic history, and resource management to national politics in Latin America. It takes a fresh look at old academic questions, critiques the received knowledge on trade, and offers some new data, documents, and indexes. To the standard literature on Latin American trade, the author adds insights and information from other literatures - resource conservation, poverty alleviation, and national development strategies, to name a few. The current trend toward looking at constraints and possibilities in the trade system is reshaped to ask familiar questions in a concrete, empirical way. What changes in development design come from external shock, and under what conditions? Does the pressure of the international system actually force Latin American countries to alter their rates and kinds of natural resource exploitation? Can a political course of export promotion address the debt crisis effectively? Are the multilateral trade negotiations a useful format for Latin American trade and development problems? And, finally, can we sayanything with authority about Latin America as a region?
Download or read book The Economics of Contemporary Latin America written by Beatriz Armendariz and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2017-05-05 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analysis of Latin America's economy focusing on development, covering the colonial roots of inequality, boom and bust cycles, labor markets, and fiscal and monetary policy. Latin America is richly endowed with natural resources, fertile land, and vibrant cultures. Yet the region remains much poorer than its neighbors to the north. Most Latin American countries have not achieved standards of living and stable institutions comparable to those found in developed countries, have experienced repeated boom-bust cycles, and remain heavily reliant on primary commodities. This book studies the historical roots of Latin America's contemporary economic and social development, focusing on poverty and income inequality dating back to colonial times. It addresses today's legacies of the market-friendly reforms that took hold in the 1980s and 1990s by examining successful stabilizations and homemade monetary and fiscal institutional reforms. It offers a detailed analysis of trade and financial liberalization, twenty–first century-growth, and the decline in poverty and income inequality. Finally, the book offers an overall analysis of inclusive growth policies for development—including gender issues and the informal sector—and the challenges that lie ahead for the region, with special attention to pressing demands by the vibrant and vocal middle class, youth unemployment, and indigenous populations.

Download or read book China s Trade Policy in Latin America written by Dorotea López and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-30 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines China's trade insertion strategy in Latin America. Divided into five parts, the book features scholars from China, Chile, Costa Rica, Peru, and Mexico who present the main actors and dynamics around China's trade policy in the region in twelve carefully selected contributions, with qualitative and quantitative case studies. Highlighting China's important trade presence in Latin America after joining the World Trade Organization (WTO), the book analyzes the effects of free trade agreements China signed with three countries in the region - Chile (2005), Peru (2010), and Costa Rica (2011) - as well as specific preferential agreements with other countries from Latin America. While the first part of this book reviews China and Latin America trade policies, the second part explores China's view of Latin America. In a third part of the book, the contributions provide a deeper look into the trade relations between China and the countries of Peru, Costa Rica, Mexico, and the United States. The fourth part of the volume focuses on the emerging trade agenda between the two regions. Finally, the fifth part of the book discusses the trade challenges between China and Latin American and Caribbean countries. The book will appeal to scholars of international relations, economics, and political science, as well as policy-makers interested in a Chinese and Latin American perspective on trade policy in general, and on China's trade policy in the region in particular.
Download or read book Latin American and Caribbean Trade Agreements written by Thomas Andrew O'Keefe and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin American and Caribbean Trade Agreements: Keys to a Prosperous Community of the Americas is the essential reference guide for companies trading with Latin America and the Caribbean or wishing to use a country in the region as an export platform. This work fills the void in academic texts that are used to teach courses on economic integration in the Western Hemisphere. It provides a road map for the Obama Administration to launch an ambitious project designed to encourage economic growth, promote energy security, and reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions, while at the same time realistically meeting the development needs of Latin America and the Caribbean. Latin American and Caribbean Trade Agreements: Keys to a Prosperous Community of the Americas posits that the myopic focus of past United States administrations on free markets to spur economic development in the Western Hemisphere is not enough. A bolder and more ambitious project that also seeks to redress many of the deep-seated problems that have long plagued the region is required. The Community of the Americas proposed in this book rests upon the important work that has already been done at the sub-regional level in terms of economic and political reform, identifying infrastructure and human capital needs, and regulating migration. It provides a new and cohesive vision for U.S. policy in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Download or read book Revisiting the Link between Trade Growth and Inequality written by Ms.Kimberly Beaton and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-03-09 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We revisit the relationship between international trade, economic growth and inequality with a focus on Latin America and the Caribbean. The paper combines two approaches: First, we employ a cross-country panel framework to analyze the macroeconomic effects of international trade on economic growth and inequality considering the strength of trade connections as well as characteristics of countries’ export markets and products. Second, we consider event studies of past episodes of trade liberalization to extract general lessons on the impact of trade liberalization on economic growth and its structure and inequality. Both approaches consistently point to two broad messages: First, trade openness and connectivity to the center of the trade network has substantial macroeconomic benefits. Second, we do not find a statistically significant or economically sizable direct impact of trade on overall income inequality.
