Sažetak
Twelve Pacific Rim countries that account for forty percent of world output and more than a quarter of world trade have signed a Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement. Assuming that the agreement is ratified and implemented by the signatory countries, the TPP will have important implications for the world trading system. New ground is broken in this mega-regional agreement in a number of areas where progress has not yet been possible in the more comprehensive World Trade Organization negotiations. This paper provides an analysis of the innovations in the agreement, assesses their significance for the broader world trade regime, and considers the feasibility of extending them to the multilateral trading
system. Synergistic effects on other ongoing mega-regional negotiations are also considered.
