Description

The final text of the proposed U.S.-Panama FTA incorporates specific amendments on key issues at the behest of congressional leadership.

The most significant were adoption of enforceable labor standards, compulsory adherence to select multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs), and an easing of restrictions on developing country access to generic drugs.

In these cases, the proposed U.S.-Panama FTA goes beyond provisions in existing bilateral FTAs and multilateral trade rules, including those contemplated in the Doha Round.

This book presents the U.S.-Panama Free Trade Agreement, as well as an examination of the main points and effects of the agreement after three years' time.
