Summary/Abstract |
In his inaugural address, U.S. President Donald Trump pledged that economic nationalism would be the hallmark of his trade policy. “We must protect our borders from the ravages of other countries making our products, stealing our companies, and destroying our jobs,” he said. Within days, he withdrew the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), announced that he would renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and threatened to impose a special tax on U.S. companies that move their factories abroad.

Summary/Abstract |
In the 20 years since it entered into force, the North American Free Trade Agreement has been both lauded and attacked in the United States. But to properly assess NAFTA's record, it is important to first be clear about what the agreement has actually done. Economically speaking, the answer is a lot. By uniting the economies of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, NAFTA created what is today a $19 trillion regional market with some 470 million consumers. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce figures that some six million U.S. jobs depend on trade with Mexico and another eight million on trade with Canada. NAFTA was the first comprehensive free-trade agreement to join developed and developing nations, and it achieved broader and deeper market openings than any trade agreement had before.

Summary/Abstract |
As summer slowly unfolded in Washington in 2015, the global trade bill was tenuously moving forward after surviving more than one near-death experience. It is a syndrome as well as a legislative event: No global trade liberalization agreement has advanced beyond the aspirational stage since the Uruguay Round was completed more than 20 years ago, and the United States has managed to finish only one substantial regional agreement, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), since 1994. There is a simple explanation for this indecisiveness and inaction: Trade liberalization is hard to sell to a skeptical public bombarded with populist fear of competition from a succession of low-wage countries, and political leaders have consistently failed to muster the political will to push agreements to completion.
