Working Papers from Notre-Dame de la Paix, Sciences Economiques et Sociales

Abstract: This paper discusses the trade flow effects outside the EEC following the creation of the latter. First, it focuses on the external effects of European integration on US trade specifically, and continue after that, more in general, with the induces integration effects on the trade among excluded countries. Then, it discusses the correlation results obtained from the parameter estimates. This will allow the author to evaluate the relevance of different trade models. The paper also deals with the trade effects of the absorption of a small custom union, the Benelux, by a larger one, EEC-6 first and, after that EEC-9.
