Download NAFTA 2.0 Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The renegotiation and possible termination of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) sparked a lot of interest and concern in light of the United States’ declared objective to “rebalance the benefits” of the agreement. This edited book provides an overview of the changes brought to the NAFTA by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) or NAFTA 2.0. Grouping leading academics and experts from the three countries, the book covers the major topics in the transition from the NAFTA to the USMCA. The book also sheds light on the evolution of North American economic integration within the past three decades and reflects on the significance of the regional integration model represented by the NAFTA and now the USMCA. The book is aimed at scholars, students, officials, professionals and interested citizens concerned by the big issues surrounding North American integration and economic globalization.

Download Eating NAFTA Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Mexican cuisine has emerged as a paradox of globalization. Food enthusiasts throughout the world celebrate the humble taco at the same time that Mexicans are eating fewer tortillas and more processed food. Today Mexico is experiencing an epidemic of diet-related chronic illness. The precipitous rise of obesity and diabetes—attributed to changes in the Mexican diet—has resulted in a public health emergency. In her gripping new book, Alyshia Gálvez exposes how changes in policy following NAFTA have fundamentally altered one of the most basic elements of life in Mexico—sustenance. Mexicans are faced with a food system that favors food security over subsistence agriculture, development over sustainability, market participation over social welfare, and ideologies of self-care over public health. Trade agreements negotiated to improve lives have resulted in unintended consequences for people’s everyday lives.

Download An Analysis of Fair Use and GIs in the Transition from NAFTA to USMCA. Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The North-American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was recently superseded by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). The first agreement between the three countries was signed three decades ago and it meant the first-time inclusion of a whole chapter about intellectual property (IP) in a Free Trade Agreement (FTA).The practice has become common in the current panorama of intellectual property, where international free trade agreements are prolific. Patent law is the area which has shown the greater degrees of harmonization, but other topics are the ones that are attracting attention, because of the different opinions that exist in contracting countries.Two intellectual property areas were selected for analysis in this work, with the objective of identifying the missed opportunities for international IP protection in the renegotiation of the NAFTA agreement vis-à-vis the stances of the contracting parties and their IP tradition. The first one is the limitations and exceptions for copyright's exclusive rights. The second one is the recognition and protection of geographical indications. The thesis presents an analysis of the problematics of such an attempt, considering the different approaches, priorities and intentions of each of the countries. It also explores the possible opportunities for future FTAs to implement specific IP provisions in those two areas, where the contracting parties have different opinions on the ideal solution for balancing the interests of the right-holders and the public interest.

Download The Americas in Transition Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The FTA, MERCOSUR, the Enterprise for the Americas Initiative, NAFTA, the Summit of the Americas--do these constitute building blocs in the construction of a new regional system? This book explores that question, offering an assessment of the state of regionalism in the Americas. The authors first outline the regionalist project--which they view as essentially a U.S. initiative--and analyze the environment in which it has evolved. They then focus on the reactions and strategies of the various actors involved. The final chapter of the book seeks to articulate the present contours of regionalism in the Americas and to identify future trends.

Download NAFTA to USMCA: What is Gained? Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The United States – Mexico – Canada Agreement (USMCA) was signed on November 30, 2018 and aims to replace and modernize the North-American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). This paper uses a global, multisector, computable-general-equilibrium model to provide an analytical assessment of five key provisions in the new agreement, including tighter rules of origin in the automotive, textiles and apparel sectors, more liberalized agricultural trade, and other trade facilitation measures. The results show that together these provisions would adversely affect trade in the automotive, textiles and apparel sectors, while generating modest aggregate gains in terms of welfare, mostly driven by improved goods market access, with a negligible effect on real GDP. The welfare benefits from USMCA would be greatly enhanced with the elimination of U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from Canada and Mexico and the elimination of the Canadian and Mexican import surtaxes imposed after the U.S. tariffs were put in place.
