"The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was launched amid
great hopes and controversy in 1994. More than a dozen years later,
progress toward economic integration has stalled. Mexico's economy
remains far behind those of Canada and the United States, and such
pressing issues as energy security remain unaddressed. In Requiem
or Revival? scholars and policymakers from all three nations
dissect NAFTA's failure to fulfill its early promise and evaluate
the prospects for further integration. The authors explore the
interaction between regionalism and multilateralism, the impact of
the ""new trade"" agenda, and NAFTA's unresolved
problems-migration, security, and energy. Recognizing the limits of
the NAFTA framework, they examine its relationship to the Free
Trade Agreement of the Americas negotiations and the Doha
Development Round, and they discuss various ways in which NAFTA
could be revamped or improved. The result is an intriguing volume
offering important insights on the future of economic integration
in North America and beyond. Contributors include Chantal Blouin
