Rising Non-tariff Protectionism and Crisis Recovery
14 - 15 December 2009, Macao, China
Economies in the Asia-Pacific have witnessed the collapse of their trade flows to a degree unprecedented in modern economic history. While protectionism has not been the first-choice policy reaction in most countries in the region, there is a fear that non-tariff protectionism still may intensify if recovery slows down. This workshop is dedicated to the study and discussion of different aspects of non-tariff protectionism.
