Trade in Services in the Asia-Pacific Region, Hardback Book

Trade in Services in the Asia-Pacific Region Hardback

Edited by Takatoshi Ito, Anne O. Krueger

Part of the (NBER) National Bureau of Economic Research East Asia Seminar on Economics series

Hardback

Description

In recent years the tremendous growth of the service sector has outstrippped that of manfacturing in many industrialized nations, causing economists to focus on both the policy issues raised by services and the differences between production and delivery of goods and services.

This is the first book-length attempt to analyze trade in services in the Asia-Pacific region.

Contributors provide overviews of issues involved in studying the service sector; investigate the impact of increasing trade in services on the economies of Taiwan, Korea and Hong Kong; present detailed analyses of specific service sectors; and extend our understanding of trade in services.
