One of the major benefits of international [trade] is that [it] offer[s] equal opportunities and require[s] ....[t]hose who believe in the open trading system ..

INTRODUCTION Coined by Professor Jagdish Bhagwati of Columbia University, the term 3 "spaghetti bowl" refers to the proliferation of free trade agreements-the nearly two hundred regional and bilateral trade agreements that exist today and that comprise a "maze of free-trade areas . .. and customs unions . .."4 Sanctioned under the World Trade Organization ("WTO") Charter, in particular under Article XXIV of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade ("GATT"), free trade agreements arise when "countries extend [their] preferences in different directions." 5 In more direct terms, countries engage a particular country or region with which they would like to trade, at the exclusion of all other countries or regions. Free trade agreements are, therefore, also known as "preferential trade * LL.M., Georgetown University Law Center J.D., Stetson University College of Law; B.A., Vanderbilt University. I.

Because these agreements depend on national preferences, 6 the reasons countries enter into them are not always clear-one country's motivation for seeking a PTA may be different from another's. The WTO Charter does not require countries to disclose their rationales for entering into a PTA. In fact, the lone condition tied to a PTA is that it must liberalize territories, 7 meaning that it must substantially all the trade between 8the constituent account for the bulk of their trade. While many scholars have considered the theory, consequences, and positives and negatives of PTAs, 9 few have addressed the reasons why countries pursue them and why they pick the partners they do.10 Indeed, authors of recent literature on PTAs implicitly assume that these agreements are similar.'" But in today's age,2 when culture, goods, and money "cross borders more than at any time in history," 1 PTAs are more likely to be some of the most diverse instruments in the world, rather than near facsimiles of each other. To be sure, the majority of them vary not only in content but also in form, reflecting "sharp differences in the objectives of the countries seeking them."' 3 These objectives include increased market access, the implementation of domestic policy reform, the creation of leverage in bilateral or multilateral bargaining power, and the formation of strategic linkages, some of which may be related to national security.' 4 But this list is hardly exhaustive, considering the profound differences in national institutions, economic conditions, and socioeconomic backgrounds around the world. This Article proposes that some countries could have far more nefarious objectives in their pursuit of PTAs-corruption-and that corrupt schemes involving PTAs could threaten the rule-oriented infrastructure of the WTO and the 6. Professor Bhagwati writes "[flree trade areas are inherently preferential" and "[e]conomists interested in the quality of public discourse should perhaps take a pledge henceforth to rename free trade areas as 'preferential' trade areas."

  • Ancient Economic Thought, Volume 1
    ANCIENT ECONOMIC THOUGHT This collection explores the interrelationship between economic practice and intellectual constructs in a number of ancient cultures. Each chapter presents a new, richer understanding of the preoccupation of the ancients with specific economic problems including distribution, civic pride, management and uncertainty and how they were trying to resolve them. The research is based around the different artifacts and texts of the ancient East Indian, Hebraic, Greek, Hellenistic, Roman and emerging European cultures which remain for our consideration today: religious works, instruction manuals, literary and historical writings, epigrapha and legal documents. In looking at such items it becomes clear what a different exercise it is to look forward, from the earliest texts and artifacts of any culture, to measure the achievements of thinking in the areas of economics, than it is to take the more frequent route and look backward, beginning with the modern conception of economic systems and theory creation. Presenting fascinating insights into the economic thinking of ancient cultures, this volume will enhance the reawakening of interest in ancient economic history and thought. It will be of great interest to scholars of economic thought and the history of ideas. B.B.Price is Professor of Ancient and Medieval History at York University, Toronto, and is currently doing research and teaching as visiting professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
