  • Regional Intergration in African, Caribbean and Pacific Countries
    Regional Integration in African, Caribbean and Pacific countries 1 A review of the literature September 2008 1 This study is supported by the European Commission, DG Development, and is led by Dr Dirk Willem te Velde ([email protected]) and includes Dr Mareike Meyn; they are grateful to Gabriel Boc for assistance. The views expressed are those of the authors alone and do not reflect the views of the European Commission or ODI. 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction This review of regional integration in African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries takes a broad view of regional integration and includes various aspects of regional trade integration such as tariff reduction and covers behind the border dimensions of regional trade integration such as cooperation and harmonisation in standards, services and investment, etc. but also regional policy cooperation in areas such as. infrastructure, agriculture, economic co-operation and political integration. We discuss regional trade integration, both expected effects and the empirical evidence of regional integration in the ACP and where appropriate elsewhere. We do not argue that multilateral trade liberalisation is not better than regional trade liberalisation; however, we argue that there can be significant benefits from regional integration although there can be costs as well. The benefits of regional tariff liberalisation and behind the border dimensions of regional integration can be read as the costs of non-integration for the ACP. Without closer policy cooperation (in areas ranging from political, economic, social and cultural co-ordination) the ACP remain excluded from the gains of regional integration observed in other developing countries and discussed throughout this report.

  • Trade, Regional Integration, and Free Movement of People
    A New Atlantic Community: The European Union, the US and Latin America, ed. Joaquín Roy (Miami: European Union Center of Excellence/Jean Monnet Chair, University of Miami, 2015) 111-21 Trade, Regional Integration, and Free Movement of People Willem Maas York University / European University Institute1 Abstract A building block of regional integration in Europe has been the development of supranational rights, particularly the rights of citizens of member states to live elsewhere in the community. Since the first free movement rights in the early 1950s, the concept of a common EU citizenship has hardened into law, most fa- mously in the Court of Justice’s oft-repeated assertion that “Union citizenship is destined to be the fundamental status of nationals of the Member States.” By con- trast, efforts to foster the free movement of people in groupings such as CARICOM, the Andean Community, MERCOSUR, and UNASUR have so far been relatively modest. Nevertheless, actors within each of those organizations have or are considering supranational rights, thus it is useful to ask about the pro- spects of common free movement rights and perhaps eventually citizenship, fo- cused foremost on the right of member state nationals to live and work elsewhere within the community. The paper’s underlying argument is that successful and stable regional integration efforts must include free movement rights for people. Introduction In a speech at Yale University about the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) currently being negotiated between Europe and the United States, the European Commission Vice-President Viviane Reding argued that “a single market requires fundamental changes in which nation states cooperate.

Examiner George Washington University Visiting Professor at Qatar University; Romanian-American U; and University of Guyana CEO & President, International Consulting Services [email protected] ABSTRACT There have been several attempts to achieve single market economic unions outside of Europe— including the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN), African Union (AU), Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Mercosur in South America, Union of South American Nations ( UNASUR)( Latin America) CARICOM (Caribbean) and ECOWAS ( Africa) —but they have all failed to achieve anything resembling the progress of the EU and ASEAN is the most advanced of these efforts. The author of this paper was involved or followed the details of the CARICOM’s formation from the inception of a single market economic union in the Caribbean (more than 45 years ago). This paper shares and provides some historic details, but more importantly indicates what countries can learn about economic unions from CARICOM that can help accelerate the efforts to form a strong economic union for its members – in other words why reinvent the wheel? Keywords: CARICOM, Caribbean market, economic advantage, economic unions INTRODUCTION Background There have been several attempts to achieve regional economic integration outside of Europe— including the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN), African Union (AU), Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Mercosur in South America, CARICOM (Caribbean) and ECOWAS (Africa) —but they have all failed to achieve anything resembling the progress of the EU and ASEAN is the most advanced of these efforts.
