Publisher's Synopsis
Part of a five-volume series that provides coverage of different aspects of international economic law, this volume combines history, economics, politics and law to reveal the interplay of various forces on trade and trade negotiations, primarily involving the EEC, Japan and the United States. Coverage has been updated to include such topics as the legislative implementation of the results of the Tokyo Round of Multilateral Trade Negotiations, the steel "dumping" controversy between the US and the EEC, and trade in automobiles, including emerging pressures for voluntary export restraints, particularly directed against Japan.
