3. Mercosur- EU Trade Negotiations : Ending Trade Diversion, Strengthening Trade Institutions

abstract

After a long impasse, Mercosur and the European Union are once again negotiating to reach a Free Trade Agreement. The benefits from such a trade liberalization would be significant since these are essentially complementary economic regions. An agreement would also end decades of costly trade diversion effects and few of these are quantified in this paper. But, trade is only one of the important issues in these negotiations. The biggest Mercosur countries are making efforts towards leaving behind a decade long experiment with populism that violated several World Trade Organization rules while Europe is increasingly being threatened by right wing populism that is outspoken in favor of inward-looking economic and social policies. A Mercosur-EU would create a significant economic region with enormous potential for trade creation; such an agreement would also serve to strengthen western trade institutions and challenge the populist threats that is hanging over both of these regions

4. Brexit Trade Impacts' and Mercosur's Negotiations with Europe

abstract

We estimate that a hard Brexit would reduce UK agro industrial imports from the EU by 50%. The UK Government has proposed to substitute the Common Agricultural Policy with market-oriented policies. It has also expressed interest in signing free trade agreements with interested countries and is already moving in this direction. Assuming Mercosur considers this option, then it would face two negotiations in Europe: with the EU and with the UK. How should it allocate its scarce negotiating resources and where should its political capital be put in the near future? For a number of reasons discussed in the text we argue that: i) negotiations with the EU are unlikely to deliver market access much in excess of what it has offered so far; ii) unlike these negotiations that have dragged for around twenty years, there are circumstances indicating that an FTA with the UK could be completed in a relatively short period and, iii) failing Mercosur to give these talks priority, other countries are more than likely to fill the UK import gap triggered by Brexit. We offer back-of-the-envelope estimates indicating that under such an FTA, Mercosur could triple its meat exports and double its agro-industrial exports to the UK

5. America Latina y el Caribe en la economia mundial : logros y retos de las reformas comerciales (Latin America and the Caribbean in the World Economy: Achievements and Challenges for Trade Policies)

abstract

Spanish Abstract: Durante los últimos diez años la mayoría de los países de LAC disminuyeron sus barreras comerciales dejando atrás décadas de estrategias asociadas con la sustitución de importaciones. Desde comienzos del siglo XX no se presentaba una situación similar a la actual. Estas políticas comerciales son parte de un paquete mucho mas amplio de reformas que incluyen una redefinición del rol del Estado como también, avances hacia la estabilización macroeconómica. El articulo ofrece una revisión de estas reformas enfatizando el rol crucial que tendrán ciertas políticas micro y macroeconómicas en el sostenimiento de una región que actualmente esta caracterizada por economías mucho mas abiertas que en el pasado

9. Sustaining Trade Reform : Institutional Lessons from Peru and Argentina

abstract

This paper examines trade policies in Peru and Argentina since the reforms of the 1990s. Peru provides a valuable example of sustaining reform. Leaders have used negotiations and other international instruments to disseminate among Peruvians a positive vision of Peru in the international economy and to extend the application of World Trade Organization-based governance principles. Peru has introduced few new restrictions and all of them have been through World Trade Organization-sanctioned policy instruments. Argentina, by contrast, has introduced multiple restrictions, through procedures that eschew World Trade Organization governance principles. Moreover, leaders there have returned trade politics to the dependencia philosophy that sees the international economy as an exploitive environment. The paper brings out the weakness of international obligations to limit Argentina's return to import substitution and the pains at which Peru has gone to maintain the management of its economy within the same rules that Argentina has so easily violated
