This book was released on 1997 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation reports the results of three empirical studies concerning the pattern of bilateral trade among countries of East Asia and the Pacific Rim countries--the so-called 'Asia-Pacific' region. The first study tests several hypotheses concerning the determinants of bilateral intra-industry trade for a sample of 15 Asia-Pacific countries. It is concluded that similarity in relative factor endowments between two countries results in a higher share of intra-industry trade in the total bilateral trade (Sii) between them; however, that similarity in country size results in a lower Sii, which contradicts some findings of previous studies. Economies of scale were not found, while distance and tariffs were found to be significant determinants of intra-industry trade. The interesting result was that intra-industry trade appears to be characterized by vertically differentiated products, suggesting that the pattern of specialization was affected by the difference in technological capabilities between the developed and less developed countries in the region. The second study uses gravity-type models to make inferences about relative factor intensities of several manufacturing groups and to test the Linder hypothesis that the more similar the per capita incomes between two countries, the larger the trade in manufactured goods between them. It is found that for 1980-1993 there occurred no significant change in capital-labor intensities in the composition of the manufacturing sectors. This suggests that the relocation of manufacturing from developed to developing countries that occurred in search for low wage workers did not necessarily lead to less capital-intensive technologies. The Linder hypothesis was not found to be supported. The third study assesses the desirability of regionalization in the Asia-Pacific region. ASEAN was not, while APEC was found to be a natural trading bloc. This implies that geographical proximity between ASEAN countries is not sufficient to create a natural trading bloc. The strongest natural trading partners were found to be the East Asian countries and the U.S., suggesting that policies that exclude the U.S. from the East Asian trading bloc are welfare-worsening. The formation of a free trade area among a group of countries may result in a welfare gain if their ex-ante intra-bloc trade exceeds their external trade.

Download or read book Intra-Industry Trade in Manufactures Between Thailand and Other Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), Countries written by Sujinda Chemsripong and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper empirically investigates the determinants of intra-industry trade in manufactures between Thailand and other APEC countries. A 3-digit Standard International Trade Classification (SITC) data for the period 1980-1999 is employed in the analyses. Tests of various hypotheses of the determinants of intra-industry trade are developed and performed. Results indicate that, in the pre-APEC era, intra-industry trade was negatively associated with disparity in economic development and transport and information costs between trading partners, but positively related with similarity in sophistication of the economies, capital intensity, culture and the level of openness of the economy. In the post APEC era, intra-industry trade increased with economic size, but the effect was weaker. Disparities in economic development become less important in influencing Thailand's intra-industry trade in manufactures. By adjusting for trade imbalance, the results reveal that Thailand's entry into APEC has stimulated growth in intra-industry trade in manufactures.

This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade as an engine of growth has played a catalyst role in East Asian development; through vigorous study of performances in past decades, East Asian trade and industrialization experiences may offer some lessons for other developing countries. This book covers trade and industrial structures for ten countries and regions including Japan, China, Hong Kong, Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand. The author addresses the comparative advantages and trade similarity indices of Asian economies from regional and global perspectives. He also analyzes the impacts of regional trade agreements from both member and non-member countries' perspectives. After a vigorous examination of the sources of export growth by the methodology of the constant market share analysis, the book examines the trade–investment nexus, the development of fragmentation of manufacturing production, and trade in parts and components as the dominant trade flows after the mid-1980s. It then studies the trade complementarity index among countries to further pursue the analysis of natural trading partners, and looks at the Krugman–Baldwin hub–spoke thesis by empirically identifying the 'degree of hub-ness' in three major markets in China, Japan, and the USA. Various scenarios of economic integration in East Asia are assessed and an open regionalism is proposed for East Asian economic integration and sustainable development in the conclusion of the book. Students and researchers of international trade, economic development, and Asian Studies will find the data and analyses in the volume invaluable in understanding the economic development of the Asia Pacific.

Download or read book Global Production and Trade in East Asia written by Leonard K. Cheng and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global Production and Trade in East Asia focuses on the profound change that the traditional paradigm of production and international trade has undergone in the last two decades or so as a result of worldwide trade and investment liberalization. This ongoing transformation has been both aided and stimulated by advances in telecommunications, transportation, and information management. The liberalization of trade and investment on the one hand and advances in communications technology on the other have further promoted global production networks in which vertical stages of final goods are fragmented across countries. International fragmentation of production, which enables international division of labor not only in final products but also in vertically related components, is more evident than ever before. The book documents the process of international production fragmentation and trade in East Asian economies, studies the mechanics of the process, explores the theory behind the phenomenon, and identifies important policy implications. It focuses on production fragmentation and trade in East Asia because this is the part of the world where the phenomenon is most visible. With contribution by well-known international economics scholars from North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific, the book distinguishes itself with high global quality and rich regional content. It achieves a fine balance between theory, policy, and empirical work. This book will interest scholars of international trade, foreign investment and international business, regional specialists in East Asian economies, policymakers and advisors in international economic relations, and anyone else who follows important economic issues of globalization.

Download or read book Intraregional Trade in Emerging Asia written by Mr.Harm Zebregs and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2004-04-01 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The share of emerging Asia in world trade has increased sharply over the past 25 years. A large part of this increase is the result of booming intraregional trade. This paper investigates the key factors behind the rapid increase in intraregional trade among economies in emerging Asia and its implications for the dependency of economies in the region on the business cycles in the EU, Japan, and the United States. The rise in intraregional trade is largely driven by rapidly growing intra-industry trade, which is a reflection of greater vertical specialization and the dispersion of production processes across borders. This has led to a sharp rise in trade in intermediate goods among economies in emerging Asia, but the EU, Japan, and the United States remain the main export markets for final goods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of trading across international borders has undergone a series of changes with great consequences for the world trading community, the result of new trade agreements, a number of financial crises, the emergence of the World Trade Organization, and countless other less obvious developments. In International Trade in East Asia, a group of esteemed contributors provides a summary of empirical factors of international trade specifically as they pertain to East Asian countries such as China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. Comprised of twelve fascinating studies, International Trade in East Asia highlights many of the trading practices between countries within the region as well as outside of it. The contributors bring into focus some of the region's endemic and external barriers to international trade and discuss strategies for improving productivity and fostering trade relationships. Studies on some of the factors that drive exports, the influence of research and development, the effects of foreign investment, and the ramifications of different types of protectionism will particularly resonate with the financial and economic communities who are trying to keep pace with this dramatically altered landscape.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eighteen papers from a June 1996 conference on China and the Asian Pacific Economy held in Brisbane, Australia--presented here in revised form--consider the possible future roles of the Chinese economy in the Asia Pacific region. The contributions place the Chinese economy in the context of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) process, and propose that the integration of the economies of China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan (the so-called Greater China phenomenon) has resulted in a Chinese emphasis on the northern part of APEC.

In the first section John Whalley has an insightful article on GATT, and Soogil Young discusses the place of an East Asian trading bloc in a global economic system. In the next section, H. Edward English and Murray G. Smith examine NAFTA and conclude that NAFTA may foster the formation of new regional trading arrangements in the Asia-Pacific region. Peter Drysdale and Ross Garnaut survey and analyze trade in the Pacific region and see additional gains from trade liberalization in the region. The final section of this work contains articles on direct investment, the Japanese yen, human capital flows, environmental issues, and post-Cold War security implications. An excellent work for those interested in the economic dynamics of the Pacific region.

Download or read book Trade and Investment Promotion Between Asia-Pacific and Latin America written by Mikio Kuwayama and published by CEPAL/ECLAC. This book was released on 2000 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document provides an overview of trade relations between Asia and the Pacific and Latin America and explores the possibilities for expanding the trade relations between the two regions. The analysis covers 12 regions in Asia and Oceania and 11 members of the Latin American Integration Association (LAIA). Present economic relations do not reflect the potential for interregional trade and investment. The Governments of both regions have increasingly recognised the need to institutionalise the mechanism of consultation and to possibly implement joint actions in order to strengthen bi-regional economic relations. This document analyses the present level of, and future potential for interregional trade and investment flows and makes recommendations in five areas: mechanisms for consultation on issues related to trade and investment; information creation and exchange; guidelines for trade facilitation action plan and investment promotion action plan; business community participation and, economic and technical co-operation.

This book was released on 2019-12-19 with total page 1544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protectionism has been placed under the media spotlight, with news headlines generated by populist anti-globalization movements and Donald Trump's term as US President. Such a policy stance is putting at risk unilateral trade reform efforts in the Asia-Pacific region and elsewhere.This two-volume reference work provides a timely update on how far the region has come in opening markets. It analyzes the motivations or ostensible objectives of policies adopted in the past, the changing extent of the domestic price distortions involved, the economic effects of those policies at home and abroad, the political economy forces at work that brought about those policies and their subsequent reform, their consequences for international trade, economic welfare and poverty alleviation, and prospects for sustainable improvements in current policies. Case studies of major East Asian economies and Australia reveal how government priorities to assist farmers versus manufacturers changed over the past century but especially since the 1980s, and how that has affected trade between natural resource-poor and resource-rich economies.This set is highly recommended for those who are interested in the economics and politics of trade policies, agricultural economics, economic development, and food and nutrition security in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond.
