Preferential trade blocs are in vogue. Despite the successes
achieved in liberalizing trade by multilateral trade negotiations
sponsored by the World Trade Organization (WTO), numerous countries
have separately negotiated preferential trade treaties with one
another. Representing a significant departure from the WTO's
central principle of non-discrimination among member countries,
preferential trade blocs are now the subject of an intense academic
and policy debate. The first section of this book presents a
rudimentary and intuitive introduction to the economics of
preferential trade agreements. The following chapters present the
author's theoretical and empirical research on a number of
questions surrounding the issue of preferential trade agreements
including the design of necessarily welfare-improving trade blocs,
the quantitative (econometric) evaluation of the economic (welfare)
impact of preferential trade liberalization, and the impact of
preferential trade agreements and the multilateral trade system.
