It is, in any case, a special kind of free trade area  because it consists of two highly developed economies and one large  third world economy. \u003cbr\u003e  In this book, the contributors examine the specific interests of the  three member countries, Canada, Mexico, and the United States in the  creation of NAFTA. They also assess the influence of this trade area  on their economics. \u003cbr\u003e  Looking to the future, doubts are expressed about the feasibility of  using NAFTA (a hope expressed by the USA) as a stepping stone in the  creation of a Free Trade Area of the Americas. Instead, the  contributors see the consolidation of MERCOSUR in Latin America and  the creation of a new Trans-Atlantic Market - as proposed by  Sir Leon Brittan - as more likely developments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1999-04-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792384823\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-5165-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 187\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46265556893836,"sku":"9780792384823","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792384823.jpg?v=1770783529","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792384823","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
