This book incorporates the findings of formal analyses of the politics and dynamics of regionalism. It considers the relationship between regionalism and multilateralism and explores the economic advantages of nondiscriminatory trade liberalization, which the authors argue should be exploited to the maximum extent. The book also provides rules of thumb for regionalism, rules that are not inviolable but which should not be violated lightly. Designed as a practical guide for policymakers whose countries are considering membership in a trade bloc, this book will also be of interest to scholars and students of international trade. 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 606 $aTrade blocs 606 $aRegionalism 606 $aCommercial policy 606 $aFree trade 606 $aInternational economic relations 615 0$aTrade blocs. 615 0$aRegionalism. 615 0$aCommercial policy. 615 0$aFree trade. 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 676 $a337.1 700 $aSchiff$b Maurice W$089233 701 $aWinters$b L.
