This work fills the void in academic texts that are used to teach courses on economic integration in the Western Hemisphere. It provides a road map for the Obama Administration to launch an ambitious project designed to encourage economic growth, promote energy security, and reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions, while at the same time realistically meeting the development needs of Latin America and the Caribbean. Latin American and Caribbean Trade Agreements: Keys to a Prosperous Community of the Americas posits that the myopic focus of past United States administrations on free markets to spur economic development in the Western Hemisphere is not enough. A bolder and more ambitious project that also seeks to redress many of the deep-seated problems that have long plagued the region is required. The Community of the Americas proposed in this book rests upon the important work that has already been done at the sub-regional level in terms of economic and political reform, identifying infrastructure and human capital needs, and regulating migration. It provides a new and cohesive vision for U.S. policy in Latin America and the Caribbean. 606 $aForeign trade regulation$zLatin America 606 $aFree trade$zLatin America 606 $aForeign trade regulation$zCaribbean Area 606 $aFree trade$zCaribbean Area 615 0$aForeign trade regulation 615 0$aFree trade 615 0$aForeign trade regulation 615 0$aFree trade 676 $a343/.087 700 $aO'Keefe$b Thomas Andrew$f1961-$0541643 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818056803321 996 $aLatin American and Caribbean trade agreements$94123064 997 $aUNINA
