دانلود کتاب Canada-United States Trade in Forest Products

Forest products constitute one of the most important categories of trade between Canada and the United States. This book illuminates the major economic and political factors that have led to a particular pattern of trade in forest products, and it examines and compares the legal structures within which this trade takes place. Standard economic and political methods of analysis are used to study the history of this trade, including such recent developments as the negotiated Free Trade Agreement. Several of the chapters focus on two recent disputes involving Canadian exports of timber products such as shakes and shingles, and of softwood lumber to the United States. In addition, the authors consider the issue of timber subsidies, factors affecting foreign market share, and the burden of tariffs and export taxes. This book sheds light on some of the fundamental issues affecting trade between Canada and the United States, both now and in the future. This book is intended for students and researchers in international economics, international relations and agriculture.
