With protectionist sentiment and economic nationalism on the rise,
international trade and how it is governed is at the heart of some
of the most important contemporary economic and political debates.
Comprehensive and clear, this book skilfully outlines and analyses
the dynamics of trade in the 21st century. Ken Heydon examines
three broad themes: the nature and distribution of the gains from
trade, the institutional and governance framework of the
international trade system, and the contentious practical issues
confronting policy-makers across the world. He considers pressing
contemporary debates surrounding issues ranging from agriculture
and food security to the links between trade and environment
protection, core labour standards and intellectual property rights.
He demonstrates the importance of a change of mindset in terms of
how we see trade policy: it should not, he argues, be simply a
question of international negotiation, but also a key component of
sound domestic economic management. In short, we need to put
commerce in context. Drawing on the author's experience as a policy
practitioner, trade policy analyst and teacher, the volume is
informed by an extensive analysis of the literature and by relevant
case studies. It is designed for students and scholars of
international political economy and trade policy, trade officials,
and the general public.
