NAFTA : Intentions and Outcomes Canada, The United States and Mexico.
This paper will analyze the clear distinction between NAFTA's intentions and outcomes. By looking at the arguments for and against this agreement, it will be possible to evaluate whether or not its ambitions are on their way to being fulfilled, or whether the outcomes are as complicated as the NAFTA text itself. It must be noted at the outset that, as the impact of NAFTA is different to each of its participants, it is impossible to engage in a precise analysis of its specific effects in each country. To avoid this problem, general themes will be brought to light where appropriate and more specific examples will be developed when necessary. 29.5 pgs. 66 f/c. 21b.
