英文文献摘要:
Relative to trade in non-agricultural goods, progress in achieving agricultural trade liberalization under the GATT/WTO has been slow. Agricultural trade is characterized by persistently high levels of protection on a scale that is uncommon in non-agricultural trade. Article XXIV of the GATT, 1994 permits a group of countries to form a trade union whereby trade barriers are reduced or removed on all sectors of trade. Within regional trade agreements however, agricultural trade often receives special treatment, and in some cases, agriculture is completely exempt. Typically, debates over the effects of regional trade agreements have focused on welfare. In this study we seek to answer a more fundamental question of what effect these agreements have had on agricultural trade.
相对于非农产品贸易而言,在关贸总协定/世贸组织框架下实现农产品贸易自由化的进程一直较为缓慢。农业贸易的特点是持续的高水平保护,其规模在非农业贸易中并不常见。1994年关贸总协定第XXIV条允许一些国家组成工会,以此减少或消除所有贸易部门的贸易壁垒。然而,在区域贸易协定内,农业贸易往往得到特殊待遇,在某些情况下,农业完全豁免。通常,关于区域贸易协定影响的辩论都集中在福利上。在这项研究中,我们试图回答一个更基本的问题,即这些协议对农业贸易产生了什么影响。
