A research on framing the Free Trade Areas across The Taiwan Strait¡Gfrom the Regional Economic Integration viewpointKe, Chun-Kung 19 June 2003 (has links)
Abstract
The title of this thesis is ¡§ A research on framing the Free Trade Areas across the Taiwan Strait: from the Regional Economic Integration viewpoint¡¨. The main themes of this thesis can be categorized into two parts: 1.Elaborating the theory of Free Trade Areas and the legal framework of global economic law to find out the reason why GATT/WTO permits to build Free Trade Areas as an exception of the GATT/WTO Most-Favored Treatment rule; and further stating the meaning and inspiration of Free Trade Areas across the Taiwan Strait under the experiences of EU and NAFTA. 2.After entering the WTO, according to the international norm, it¡¦s a must for both sides of The Taiwan Strait to adjust their economic relationship and set up a cross-strait free trade zone from the experience of EU and NAFTA in accordance with the natural regularity of international economic development relationship.
Taiwan and Mainland China, on two sides of the Twian Strait have become members of the WTO, and have officially connected with international trade and economic organism. It is essential for two sides to develop their economic interrelationship on the basis of the natural regularity of international economic development relationship. This thesis emphasizes that the development of economic relationship across the Taiwan Strait is a step-by-step process and suggests that the process can be divided into three steps as follows:
1.Normalization of economic relationship across the Taiwan Strait after entering WTO¡Ðit
means that the activities of trade and investment across The Taiwan Strait should be transformed from ¡§indirect¡¨ into ¡§direct.¡¨ In addition, the restrictions on the movement of the people between Taiwan and Mainland China should be eased. These changes certainly lead to more problems for Taiwan side and it is urgent to negotiate and sign agreements with China for the Agreement of Trade and Investment in order to secure its benefit in the cross-strait economic development.
2.¡§One-step-forward framework¡¨¡ÐI would like to suggest that the second step of the cross-strait economic development should go one step forward to set up a framework under which the Free Trade Agreement, industries cooperation and Custom Unions to be fulfilled.
3.The setup of the Free Trade Areas¡ÐThe Free Trade Areas can be materialized though discussion between two sides based on ¡§one-step-forward framework¡¨
In this thesis, I found out that the best policy for Taiwan and Mainland China is to construct the Free Trade Areas across the Taiwan Strait under the legal framework of WTO. However, there are some prerequisites needed to be considered as follows: 1.Raising the international competition; 2.Averting to be marginalized under the trend of Regional Economic Integration; 3.Evaluating the complementary structure of industries between Taiwan and Mainland China with an analysis of the background, humanities and history between Taiwan and Mainland China. When the Free Trade Areas to be established in the future, it is recommend that the establishment of a Common Market across the Taiwan Strait will most benefit Taiwan and Mainland in the long run.

大學生參與太陽花運動之動機研究 / Student Motivations in Sunflower Movement Participation: A Case Study韋飛進, Whitfield, Lawrence Unknown Date (has links)
在2014年3月的太陽花學運裡,參與的學生在此次扮演主要的角色。也因為如此,各領域響起許多質疑的聲浪,認為此運動只匯集了較邊緣的社會思想,尤其是極端反中的論點。這使得太陽花學運帶著不透明性,真正發起和參與的學生動機變得難以捉摸。此論文採用各方觀點加以探討,並分類大學生參與之背後的真正原由。研究首先細化就讀大學之參與者的動機,參考其投入程度,加以比較各種參加的原因;次而探討其學歷背景是否因而對其造成影響。本研究運用這兩項方法比對,釐清參與學生之背景、動機、成果的交互影響之關係。 / During the Sunflower Movement of March 2014, it was the university students that played a prominent role. Because of this, several misconceptions about the Sunflower Movement arose. Among them was that it only appealed to a small radical fringe of society, especially those with strong anti-Chinese sentiments. This cast a shadow on the movement as a whole, and the true motivations why students became involved was unclear. This paper takes a multi-dimensional approach to specifying the reasons behind why students participated. First, it breaks down the various motivations students had and compares this with how invested they became in the movement. Secondly, it takes into account students’ backgrounds to see whether or not this affected their motivations. Using this approach, we can see a relation between one’s background, motivations, and their eventual outcome in protest.

論我國自由經濟示範區的政策與推動 / Policies and Associated Measures to Implement Free Economic Pilot Zones in Taiwan李麒祥 Unknown Date (has links)
世界各國在經過亞洲金融危機、次貸風暴、歐債危機…等事件後,經濟遭受重創,各國為求經濟成長,區域經濟整合(Regional Economic Integration,REI)逐漸盛行成為趨勢,透過自由貿易協定(Free Trade Agreement, FTA)盼能吸引外資熱錢長期投資以增進成長動能,於是藉由規劃自由經濟區(Free Economic Zone,FEZ)做為貿易競爭的工具,以提昇國家競爭力。
我國因特殊的政治因素及獨特的地理環境因素,導致加入國際組織的困難及必須依靠對外貿易以獲得資源。自由經濟示範區(Taiwan Free Economic Pilot Zones,
TFEPZ)的推動代表著政府想引進外資邁向國際化的決心,但在面對國際政治困境、經濟邊緣化、政府朝野對立的情況下,政策及法規的鬆綁與否成為立法院朝野互相攻防的要點。
本研究藉由在貿易上與我國在國際間既合作又競爭且具有密切關係的中國大陸、韓國、日本等三國,藉由研究其自由貿易區政策之內容及推動現況,與我國政策進行比較分析,期能發現不足之處,進而參考借鏡提出相關建議,期許其未來發展得以更臻完善。 / The world's economy has been plagued by a series of financial disasters in recent years, including the Asian financial crisis, subprime mortgage crisis, and the European debt crisis. To revive economy, countries around the world have been seeking deeper cooperation through regional economic integration (REI). Governments have signed free trade agreements (FTA) to draw long-term foreign investments in an attempt to jumpstart growth. They have established free economic zones (FEZ) to boost international trades and improve national competitiveness.
However, due to political and geological environment, Taiwan faces a great challenge when trying to join international organizations. Besides, the country has to rely on international trades to acquire necessary resources for growth. The launch of Taiwan Free Economic Pilot Zones (TFEPZ) demonstrates the government's determination to attract foreign investments and play a more important role in the global economy. Yet, given the international political hurdles, risks of economic marginalization, and constant gridlock between the ruling party and the opposition parties in Taiwan, it will be a great challenge for the Legislative Yuan to relax related regulations after a series of fierce debates.
This research investigates policies and implementation results of FTZs in South Korea, Japan, and Mainland China—one of Taiwan's close trade partner and competitor. By analyzing and comparing FTZ policies in Taiwan, Mainland China, South Korea, and Japan, this research aims to find some aspects of improvement and provide constructive suggestions for the better development of Taiwan Free Economic Pilot Zones.

The right to health, the TRIPS agreement and the public health safeguards to encourage the universal access to essential medicinesSt-Martin, Frédéric 03 1900 (has links)
The privileges arising from patent protection on pharmaceutical products often prevent the
full realization of the right to health, especially in developing countries with scarce
resources. This thesis first identifies the international agreements that have established the
right to health in international law, obligations and violations associated with it, the
problems encountered in the implementation of human rights on the field, compared with
the implementation and sanctions associated with economic rights from the World Trade
Organization regulatory framework. A comparative study of the legislative frameworks of
both developed and developing countries will reveal to what extent Canada, the United
States, the European Union, Brazil, India, and South Africa conformed with patent
protection exceptions arising from international patent law to protect public health.
Finally, the author identifies the crucial indicators that need to be considered in order to
assess the conformity of a given approach with the right to health, before he underscores
the temporary character of the relevant WTO measures, and the future stakes concerning an
increased access to essential medicines. / Les droits issus des brevets d'invention sur les produits pharmaceutiques empêchent
souvent la réalisation pleine et entière du droit à la santé, plus spécialement dans les pays
en voie de développement ayant des ressources plus limitées. Ce mémoire de recherche
retrace d'abord les accords internationaux ayant établi le droit à la santé en droit
international, les obligations et les violations qui en découlent, la problématique quant à
la mise en oeuvre des droits de l'homme sur le terrain, en comparaison avec la mise en
oeuvre et les sanctions pour le non-respect de droits économiques dans le cadre
réglementaire de l'Organisation Mondiale du Commerce (OMC). Ensuite, une étude
comparative des cadres législatifs de pays développés et de pays en développement
révèlera dans quelle mesure le Canada, les États-Unis, l'Union Européenne, le Brésil,
l'Inde, et l'Afrique du Sud se sont conformés aux exceptions aux règles de protection
issues du droit international des brevets pour cause de santé publique. L'auteur identifie
finalement les points de première importance qu'il considère primordial de considérer
afin d'évaluer si une approche conforme au droit à la santé a été respectée dans le
commerce de médicaments essentiels, avant de souligner l'aspect temporaire des mesures
courantes prévues dans l'OMC et des futurs enjeux quant à l'accroissement de l'accès
aux médicaments essentiels. / "Mémoire présenté à la Faculté des études supérieures en vue de l'obtention du grade de Maîtrise en droit des biotechnologies". Ce mémoire a été accepté à l'unanimité et classé parmi les 10% des mémoires de la discipline. Commentaires du jury : "Le jury est impressionné par l'ampleur de la recherche et de la synthèse très instructive du débat Nord-Sud".

Cultural brokering : art, national identity, and the influence of Free TradeSmith, Sarah Ellen Kathleen 21 August 2008 (has links)
This thesis explores the intersections of culture, nationalism, and neoliberal globalization through examination of the construction of Mexican identity in Canada after the implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) in 1994. I evaluate how visual art has been used by the governments of Canada and Mexico to negotiate new bilateral relationships in the face of increased North American integration under free trade. My study includes analysis of two Canada-based exhibitions, “Mexican Modern Art, 1900-1950” and “Panoramas: The North American Landscape in Art.” Framing my discussion within the larger history of North American integration, I argue that these two exhibitions are part of a larger exchange in the area of cultural diplomacy between Canada and Mexico, which was especially prominent at the turn of the millennium. These case studies provide a means to assess the manipulation of culture, the creation of a new North American identity, and the management of national/ist narratives within the larger project of neoliberal globalization. Critically situating my study within the current discourse of globalization theory, I contend that artworks in these exhibitions were positioned in a manner to positively reinforce new trade relationships under NAFTA. / Thesis (Master, Art History) -- Queen's University, 2008-08-20 15:05:45.256

Essays on trade integration and firm dynamicsBuono, Inés 29 October 2008 (has links)
This thesis deals with the integration of firms into export markets when trade barriers decrease. It consists in three chapters.The first chapter focuses on how cross-industry differences in factor intensities and within-industry differences in firm productivity shape the response of the extensive (the decision to export) and the intensive (the exported volumes) margin of export. The context of the analysis is the entry of Turkey into the European Customs Union in 1996. Results suggest that the extensive margin reacted more in labor-intensive sectors.In the second chapter we use a gravity approach to analyze how the decrease in tariffs promoted during the '90s by the Uruguay Round multilateral agreement affected trade margins for French firms. We find that the tariffs significantly affect trade only through the extensive margin. The third chapter describes the dynamic of firms' export to different countries and uncovers eleven new stylized facts on firm-level trade. / Esta tesis trata de la integración de las impresas en los mercados internacionales cuando las barreras al comercio bajan. El primer capitulo analiza como las diferencias de la intensidad de los factores entre las industrias y de la productividad de las impresas en cada industria determinan la respuesta del margen extenso (la decisión de exportar) y intensivo (los volúmenes exportados) de cada impresa. El contexto de este análisis es la entrada de la Turquía en la Unión Aduanera Europea en el 1996. Los resultados indican que el margen extenso reacciona más en los sectores más intensivos en mano de obra.En el segundo capitulo utilizamos una ecuación gravitacional para analizar como el decrecimiento de las tarifas obtenida en los '90s gracias al "Uruguay Round" ha afectado los márgenes del comercio de las impresas Francesas. Descubrimos que las tarifas afectan de una manera significativa solo el margen extenso.El tercero capitulo describe la dinámica del exporte de las impresas en distintos Piases y revela once nuevos hechos estilizados sobre el comercio de las empresas.

Main Labor Breaches of the Peruvian State in the Framework of the Free Trade Agreement with the United States / Principales Incumplimientos Laborales del Estado Peruano en el Marco del Tratado de Libre Comercio con Estados UnidosMendoza Choque, Luis Enrique 10 April 2018 (has links)
The following article begins with the old and close relationship between labor rights and international trade, a relationship that has become more important given the creation of new instruments, mechanisms and sanctions. The labor chapter of the Peru-US Trade Promotion Agreement and its application can be analyzed from different perspectives. The following article sets its focus on three distinct facets: the principle of progressivity of social rights; the legal nature of free trade agreements; and two of the current promotional labor regimes in Peruvian legislation. The article references two complaints of non-compliance with the labor chapter presented by Peruvian unions during the period since the Free Trade Agreement entered into force. Finally, the report presents conclusions that aim to contribute to the debate on this subject. / El siguiente artículo parte de antigua y cercana vinculación entre Derecho del Trabajo y el comercio internacional, relación que en los últimos años ha recobrado importancia debido a la aparición de nuevos instrumentos, mecanismos y sanciones. El contenido laboral del TLC con los Estados Unidos y su aplicación se pueden analizar desde distintos ángulos, en el siguiente trabajo nos limitaremos a estudiarlo a la luz de tres elementos: el Principio de Progresividad de los derechos sociales, la naturaleza jurídica del TLC y dos de los regímenes laborales promocionales vigentes en la legislación peruana. Los incumplimientos a los que haremos referencia son los referidos a las dos quejas presentadas por organizaciones sindicales peruanas en el marco de los mecanismos de cumplimiento del TLC. Finalmente, se presentan algunas conclusiones que pretenden contribuir al debate sobre la materia.

Previous issue date: 2012-09-04 / The purpose of this paper is to examine possible welfare gains from trade arrangements between Brazil and China, from the perspective of a computable general equilibrium model, named GTAP model. After an extensive description of the commercial and economic structures of the countries, in addition to their comparative advantage, it will be possible to simulate Preferential Trade Agreements, and from these, analyze the results of welfare measured by the Equivalent Variation. Another aspect regarding the Sino-Brazilian relationship, which can be analyzed by this measure of welfare, is the exchange rate misalignment in both countries and its consequences for trade transactions. Using the referred tools, the study seeks to determine the impact of such misalignment in the welfare of the countries, once the exchange is corrected through an adjustment in the tariff. / O propósito deste trabalho é examinar possíveis ganhos de bem-estar provenientes de arranjos comerciais entre Brasil e China sob a ótica de um modelo de equilíbrio geral computável, o chamado 'modelo GTAP' (sigla para Global Trade Analysis Project). Com base em uma descrição extensiva das estruturas econômicas e comerciais dos países e das Vantagens Comparativas de cada um deles, é possível simular acordos preferenciais de comércio e analisar os resultados de bem-estar por meio da medida de Variação Equivalente. Outro aspecto referente ao comércio sino-brasileiro que pode ser avaliado pela medida de bem-estar é o desalinhamento cambial dos dois países e as consequências deste para as transações comerciais entre ambos. Utilizando o mesmo ferramental anteriormente citado, o trabalho busca avaliar o impacto de tal desalinhamento no bem-estar dos países, uma vez que o câmbio seja corrigido via ajuste tarifário.
