Mega-regionalism in the Asia Pacific has led to the formation of
several emerging trade blocs, including the Trans-Pacific
Partnership. This book, in addition to the examination of trade
policies in the region, offers a comprehensive analysis of ongoing
developments such as the impact of new members on the incumbent
TPP-12 and its spillover to third parties, as well an objective
study of the crucial issues of liberalization of agriculture,
pharmaceuticals, and intellectual property rights. Split into three
diverse sections, this book is a joint venture of many outstanding
scholars in various disciplines, all with expertise in the Asia
Pacific's regional affairs. These contributions provide readers
with a rigorous assessment of membership enlargement and sectorial
liberalization of the TPP as well as the pathways toward
region-wide free trade areas. Editor Peter C.Y. Chow includes both
an analysis of the trade policies of China and the US and a
discussion of the impact of new members on trade complementarity,
global value chains, and the US's trade balance. Detailed studies
on the effect of Taiwan's membership on the US economy and
industries such as agriculture, manufacturing, and service are also
explored. This edited volume will attract readers interested in
international trade, economic integration, and globalization.
Academics and practitioners in geopolitics, geo-economics, and
international relations in the Asia Pacific will also be of
interest. Contributors include: C. Barfield, T.-J. Cheng, L.-i.
