About this book

International trade and investment have flourished globally but nowhere so spectacularly as in the Asia-Pacific region. This volume brings together some of the most eminent economists in the field to analyse this vital region from both theoretical and empirical perspectives. The volume focuses especially on trade policy and welfare, game theory analysis of trade policy and the linkages between trade policy and endogenous growth.
