Abstract (eng): | This monograph studies trade and integration at three levels: national, regional and global. The impacts of trade policy on integration have been evaluated in three different cases: Finland's accession into the EU, global trade liberalisation set off by the WTO negotiations and the EU's enlargement with the new members from the former socialist Central European countries. Computable general equilibrium (CGE) modelling is used to evaluate the likely outcomes of the policy changes related to these occurrences.
Finnish accession into the EU is evaluated by a single region comparative-static computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the Finnish economy. Multilateral trade liberalisation within the WTO negotiations is evaluated using a multiregional CGE -model. The eastern enlargement of the EU is studied with a recursive dynamic version multiregional model. Focus in the evaluation of enlargement is in factor mobility issues. | ||
Abstract (fin): | Tässä tutkimuksessa arvioidaan kauppaa ja integraatiota kolmella tasolla: kansallisella, alueellisella ja globaalilla. Kaupan ja integraation merkitystä on tarkasteltu kolmen esimerkin valossa, jotka ovat Suomen EU -jäsenyys, WTO kauppaneuvottelut ja EU:n itälaajentuminen Itä-Euroopan entisiin sosialistimaihin. Numeerista yleisen tasapainon (CGE) malleilla on arvioitu näihin tapahtumiin liittyvien politiikkamuutosten todennäköisiä seuraamuksia.
Suomen EU -jäsenyyttä on arvioitu yhden maan komparatiivis-staattisella Suomea kuvaavalla CGE -mallilla. Monenvälisten kauppaneuvottelujen vaikutuksia on arvioitu Purduen yliopistossa kehitellyllä GTAP -mallilla. EU:n itälaajentumista on arvioitu GTAP -mallin rekursiivisesti dynaamisella versiolla. | ||
