The Trade Impact of European Union Preferential Policies: An Analysis Through Gravity Models
ISBN: 9783642165634 / Angielski / Twarda / 229 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book investigates the EU preferential trade policy and, in particular, the impact it had on trade flows from developing countries.

The book takes an eclectic but rigorous approach to the econometric analysis by combining different specifications of the gravity model. An in-depth presentation of the gravity model is also included, providing significant insights into the distinctive features of this technique and its...

This pioneering volume invites scholars from different social science disciplines to contribute their competing perspectives to a far-ranging albeit understudied dimension of globalization.

Such commercial advances have, in turn, intensified the interdependence among states and the authors raise a number of...

Invisible War: The United States and the Iraq Sanctions
ISBN: 9780674064089 / Angielski / Miękka / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The economic sanctions imposed on Iraq from 1990 to 2003 were the most comprehensive and devastating of any established in the name of international governance. The sanctions, coupled with the bombing campaign of 1991, brought about the near collapse of Iraq's infrastructure and profoundly compromised basic conditions necessary to sustain life. In a sharp indictment of U.S. policy, Joy Gordon examines the key role the nation played in shaping the sanctions, whose harsh strictures resulted in part from U.S. definitions of "dual use" and "weapons of mass destruction," and claims that...

Playing Our Game: Why China's Rise Doesn't Threaten the West
ISBN: 9780199837083 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Conventional wisdom holds that China's burgeoning economic power has reduced the United States to little more than a customer of Beijing. Not so, writes Edward Steinfeld. In this fascinating book, Steinfeld asserts that China's growth actually enhances Western commercial supremacy. By seeking to realize its dream of modernization by integrating itself into the Western economic order, China is playing by our rules, reinforcing the dominance of our companies and regulatory institutions. Indeed, China has in many ways handed over--outsourced--the remaking of its domestic economy and domestic...

Goss traces the tariff system through three avatars that often existed simultaneously: protective, preventive and punitive. From an ineffective colonial system that allowed importers to avoid payment through extended credit arrangements, to a somewhat less troubled system that demanded immediate cash payments in the early 1840s, to a punitive system designed to stymie smugglers during the Civil War, the collection of tariff duties was always problematic. This problem was enhanced in the wake of industrialization and... A Comprehensive History of the Tariff System in the United States

American Opinion on Trade: Preferences Without Politics
ISBN: 9780190651824 / Angielski / Twarda / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The changing American economy has made the direct effects of trade less obvious, making the benefits and costs more difficult to determine....
