Course Description
From the CTY Course Catalog (2008):
In this course, students examine the forces that are leading to increased trade; the dynamics of economic integration fostered by trade; and the economic, political, and social effects of free trade. Students study several examples of free trade in the Americas including the North American and Central American Free Trade Areas (NAFTA and CAFTA) and the proposed Free Trade Area of the Americas. They consider multiple variables such as macroeconomic performance, economic structures, legal and political structures, income distribution, and environmental impacts to compare the impact of free trade on different countries. The flow of goods, services and people within and among free trade groups will be evaluated by students. Students also take into account the broader international context of free trade including the role of the World Trade Organization and comparisons between regional trade schemes in Europe and Asia and those in Latin America.
