Description

This comprehensive analysis examines how social standards shape US and EU preferential trade agreements in the modern global trading system. The book investigates why American trade pacts incorporate stricter labour and environmental requirements than European counterparts, applying principal-agent theory to explain the institutional factors driving these differences. As countries worldwide pursue bilateral and regional trade deals, understanding social regulation becomes essential for policymakers, trade professionals, and academics. The author explores how trade policy executives navigate interest group pressures and legislative constraints whilst balancing the need to prevent regulatory races to the bottom with effective counter-protectionism strategies. This volume contributes to the New Regionalisms Series with rigorous scholarly analysis of how social standards function as both trade barriers and mechanisms for harmonising labour and environmental protection across trading blocs.

Key Features

Examines social standards provisions in US and EU preferential trade agreements and their consequences for global commerce.

Applies principal-agent theory to explain institutional differences determining the strictness of labour and environmental requirements.

Analyses how trade policy executives balance interest group pressures against regulatory harmonisation objectives.

Addresses contemporary concerns about preventing races to the bottom in social regulation through international trade rules.

Published by Routledge as part of the New Regionalisms Series focusing on regional trade dynamics.
