As tariffs have fallen worldwide, the increasing importance of
non-tariff policies for further trade liberalization has become
widely recognized. The methods for assessing the potential effects
of such liberalization have lagged significantly behind those
available for analyzing tariffs. This book is the first volume that
comprehensively addresses this gap. It has been designed to be
useful for both economists and policymakers, especially for those
involved in communicating ideas and results between economists and
policymakers.This indispensable book contains cutting-edge
discussions of the full range of methodologies used in this area,
including business surveys, summary statistics such as effective
rates of protection and price gaps, time-series and panel
econometrics, and simulation methods such as computable general
equilibrium. It covers the entire spectrum of policies under
discussion in current trade negotiations, including trade
facilitation, services policies, quantitative measures, customs
procedures, standards, movement of natural persons, and
anti-dumping.Some prominent contributors to this book are Bijit
Bora (World Trade Organization), John Wilson, Tsunehiro Otsuki and
Vlad Manole (World Bank), Catherine Mann (Institute of
International Economics), Alan Deardorff and Robert Stern
(University of Michigan), Joe Francois (Erasmus University), Dean
Spinanger (University of Kiel), Antoni Estevadeordal and Kati
Suominen (Inter-American Development Bank), Thomas Prusa (Rutgers
University), Thomas Hertel and Terrie Walmsley (Purdue University),
Scott Bradford (Brigham Young University), Judith Dean, Robert
Feinberg, Soamiely Andriamananjara and Marinos Tsigas (US
International Trade Commission).
