Free-Trade Agreements: For Better or Worse?
分析了区域自由贸易协定在形成或扩大时可能比以往认为的更好,但在数量增多时可能更糟,并呼吁重新评估其设计。
This paper cites reasons why regional free trade agreements (FTA's) may be better than previously recognized when they are formed or expand (as in NAFTA), and why they may be worse when they multiply, as is now common just about everywhere else. If this argument stands, it implies a fundamental reevaluation of FTA's and their design.
