Regionalism, Trade and Economic Development in the Asia-Pacific Region

Edited by M. A.B. Siddique

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This book is based on the premise that Regional Trade Agreements (RTAs) in the Asia-Pacific significantly impact on the material progress of the peoples of this region. These impacts – in terms of the benefits and costs associated with RTAs – will vary greatly from country to country. The internationally acclaimed contributors examine the theoretical perspective of RTAs in relation to exchange rates, the role and goals of the WTO and agriculture.
