Where Latin American government leaders once looked at free
trade agreements as solely about trade and trading policies, they
are increasingly viewing them as the next beacon of hope in the
long and arduous road of economic reform.
"Integrating the Americas: FTAA and Beyond" discusses how these
governments have become embroiled in a larger set of issues
affecting both institutions. This work, based on a conference
sponsored by the Inter-American Development Bank and the David
Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies, examines how this
free trade process is surging ahead, while at the same time taking
on a broader set of issues including institutional reform,
transparency, the environment, labor, and social cohesion. The
payoffs to the strategy of liberalization, privatization, and
openness have been meager and disappointing to date. Will the FTAA
be able to reverse this and allow Latin America to reap the
benefits of globalization?
