Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between free trade and environmental protection has been under intense debate during the last two decades. Trade and environment (T&E) issues have undergone to various studies as a result. This article will examine T&E issues from the perspective of the environmental aspect and regulatory impact of trade rules. After fleshing out the legal perspectives of the analytical framework concerning T&E issues, a brief analysis of T&E issues in the GATT/WTO will be presented. East Asia is a region whose engine of growth lies in the promotion of free trade. This region has also been plagued with various environmental problems as a result of rapid industrialization. How this region can deal with T&E issues will be a main focus of this article. The main conclusion of this article is that T&E issues remain a big challenge to East Asia as both regional trade cooperation institutions, such as the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, and a complex web of free trade agreements concluded within or by East Asian WTO Members have paid insufficient attention to T&E issues. Regional practices and positions mainly adopt the GATT/WTO approach. It is suggested in the conclusion that East Asia, both as a region and in individual country, should at least start to study the environmental regulation impact of trade rules if the region is committed to the mutual supportiveness of trade and environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The connection between trade and the environment gives rise to a set of issues that is relatively new and still controversial. The concern of environmentalists is that liberalised trade will lead to an increase in products that are harmful to the environment. Those who promote freer trade, on the other hand, are concerned that environmental issues will provide a pretext for protectionism and form trade barriers. This is significant as trade is seen by Asia as an engine of growth. It is part of the formula pioneered by "Asian Dragons" in pursuing export-oriented industrialisation and now adopted by other, larger Asian countries. Asia ,too, is facing considerable environmental stress in development. Ultimately, as recognised by the 1992 Earth Summit, the issues of trade and the environment are part of the challenges in seeking sustainable development. These issues came into focus as the World Trade Organisation met in Singapore in December 1996, when the WTO committee on trade and the environment delivered its first report. Increasingly, trade and the environment will need to be considered in the context of other regional initiatives such as Asia Pacific Economic Co-operation area (APEC), ASEAN Free Trade Agreement and Asia's reinvigorated ties with Europe after the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM). As economic integration deepens, concern with environmental issues will rise on the agenda. This book brings together essays by leading academics and policy makers from different disciplines and different sectors. Just as importantly, the three major trading regions of the world are equally represented: Asia, Europe and North America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The economies located in East, South and Southeast Asia have witnessed an interesting growth-sustainability trade-off over the last decades. While growth considerations have paved ways for deepened ties with growing trade-investment waves and increasing population pressure necessitated exploitation of hitherto unutilized natural resources, focus on environmental sustainability has been a recent consideration. The growth impetus still playing a key role in these economies, it becomes imperative that the countries effectively address the key sustainability concerns, e.g. air and water pollution, land degradation, loss of biodiversity, climate change issues like CO2 emissions etc. But how prepared is the governance mechanism of these countries, covering not only the legislative and administrative framework but also involvement of the judiciary, presence of spirited civil society and active engagement of stakeholders in policy-framing dialogues, to rise up to these challenges? The book seeks an answer to this question through the environmental governance mechanism and natural resource conservation policies in three vibrant regions within Asia. A holistic development dimension of sustainable development path emerges, through discussion of policies adopted by developed (Japan, South Korea), upper-middle (China, Malaysia), developing (India, Indonesia, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand) and least developed countries (Bangladesh, Myanmar, Nepal).

This book was released on 1999 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Asia-Pacific region, international trade has proven to be an engine of growth which underscores the need for policies on environment and trade to be mutually supportive. This project considers such countries as Bangladesh, China, India, Pakistan, Republic of Korea and Vietnam. It provides a regional overview on trade and environmental issues which could have restrictive effects on inter-regional trade, and environmental problems arising from export products of the region and measures required for their mitigation. The project indicates that economies in the Asia and Pacific region are heavily dependent on the utilization of their ecosystems to provide their economic resource base. Development requires open international market for regional exports drown from these resources. It is recommended that co-operation and co-ordination among the countries of the Asian and Pacific region should be promoted to build their capacity in the formulation of environmental policies to sustain both welfare increases and the natural environmental resource base.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book evaluates the evolution of regulatory policy in advanced countries and discusses how, due to globalization, policy changes in one country have a knock-on effect in others. Separated in two parts, the first half focuses on policy in developed countries and regulatory diffusion from Europe to Asia. The second part looks at the business impact of policy developments in a number of Southeast Asian countries. Key chapters discuss Thailand's response to EU chemical regulations, the diffusion of private food standards, and the effect of chemical safety standards in Malaysia and Vietnam. These contributions are written by leading scholars in the field and the book is likely to be of interest to students, researchers and policy makers concerned with regulation changes in East Asia.

Book excerpt: Asia is in the midst of a great economic and social transformation. In virtually every dimension, life in Asia is changing at an unprecedented pace: its people have become richer, healthier, better fed, and more educated in a remarkably short period of time. But not all Asians have benefited equally. Some countries, regions within countries, and groups within societies still lag seriously behind. Asia is also a much more polluted and environmentally degraded place than it was 30 years ago. This book, Emerging Asia: Changes and Challenges, looks at this great transformation and analyzes the prospects for its continuation. Taking a forward-looking and broad view of the development process, the book identifies the major trends that are likely to influence Asia's future. It then asks how these might affect future policy and institutional choices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Asia-Pacific economic development is at a decisive point. The particular system of open trading is breaking down, and no longer has clearcut American support. East Asia can now provide a majority of the market's growth required for its own export expansion, but cannot carry the whole load alone. APEC is the appropriate forum for maintaining the international framework that is necessary for East Asian dynamism to continue. This book looks at the changing international environment and its challenges for the Asian market economies."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
