A deep and unresolved tension exists within American trade politics
between the nation's promotion of an open world trading system and
the operations of its democratic domestic political regime. Whereas
most scholarly attention has focused on how domestic politics has
interfered with the United States' global economic leadership, Orin
Kirshner offers here an analysis of the ways in which U.S.
leadership in the arena of global trade has affected American
democracy and the domestic political regime. By participating in
multilateral trade agreements, the U.S. Congress has transferred
its trade policymaking authority to the president and, through
international trade negotiations, from the American state to the
GATT/WTO regime. This reorganization of policymaking authority has
resulted in the "triumph of globalism," and fundamentally alters
the citizen-state relationship assumed in democratic theory.
Kirshner illustrates this process through four case studies: The
Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act of 1945, The Trade Expansion Act of
1962, The Trade Act of 1974, The Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness
Act of 1988, and further examines the impact of the Uruguay Round
Agreements Act of 1994 on the political and institutional structure
of American trade politics up to the current period. American Trade
Politics and the Triumph of Globalism makes a significant
contribution to the study of both international trade and domestic
American politics. This is essential reading for students and
scholars of trade policy, international political economy, American
politics, and democratic theory.
