Excerpt from North American Free Trade Agreement, Mexico's Political and Legal Environment for Doing Business: Hearing Before the Committee on Small Business, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session; Washington, DC., February 25, 1993 For example, I represent a very large agricultural district. I hear questions from my farmers all the time on chemicals that are out lawed in this country, regarding whether they are going to be out lawed in Mexico? At the same time, I hear from businesses that look at this as a golden opportunity. We have nearly busi nesses that would like to export products and only about of those businesses have been successful in doing that. But this particular subject area that this hearing is focusing on is critical toward establishing confidence with the business world and confidence with the American people who we truly are head ing in the direction of playing under the same rules and playing the same game.

The seven contributions in this book examine the potential impact of a North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) with Mexico on the U.S. economy. They cover such key aspects as the general sources of comparative advantage between Mexico and the U.S., regional and local effects on production and employment, and the effect on production in particular industries. The authors start from the premise that the trade agreement will have a small impact on the overall U.S. gross national product because the U.S. economy is large compared to that of Mexico and because there is already much unrestricted trade between the two countries. Several chapters consider how some sources of comparative advantage that cut across industries differential environmental regulations and wage differentials - may affect the outcome. These are followed by chapters that assess the locational effects on U.S. production, either from the viewpoint of which metropolitan areas will gain employment or of the scale effects-transportation cost-tradeoff. Concluding chapters address the effect of the NAFTA on several individual U.S. sectors such as agriculture, automobiles, and financial services. Peter M. Garber is Professor of Economics at Brown University. Contents: Introduction, Peter M. Garber. Environmental Impacts of a North American Free Trade Agreement, Gene M. Grossman, Alan B. Krueger.
