From NAFTA to USMCA: Changing Trade Relations and Political Consequences
The Trump Administration made a trade deal with the United States’ closest neighbors a priority in 2017, with the goal of replacing NAFTA with a new agreement that was “fair” to the U.S. Efforts to negotiate a new treaty created tensions in US relations with Mexico and Canada. This panel will explore both the efforts to reach NAFTA 2.0, its significance as a trade agreement, and the potential political and security consequences of the volatility in US-Canada-Mexico relations over the last two years.
Speakers:
Christopher Wilson, Deputy Director, Mexico Institute, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars
Meredith Lilly, Associate Professor and Simon Reisman Chair in International Affairs, the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs, Carleton University
Keith Maskus, Arts and Sciences Professor of Distinction, Department of Economics, University of Colorado, Former Lead Economist in the Development Research Group at the World Bank and Former Chief Economist of the US State Department
Discussants:
Gladys McCormick, Associate Professor of History and Jay and Debe Moskowitz Chair in Mexico-US Relations, Syracuse University
Devashish Mitra, Professor of Economics and Gerald B. and Daphna Cramer Professor of Global Affairs, Syracuse University
