[object Object],Free Trade Area : In a free trade area all barriers to the trade of goods and services among member countries are removed. In the theoretically ideal free trade area, no discriminatory tariffs, quotas, subsidies, or administrative impediments are allowed to determine its own trade policies with regard to nonmembers.  Ex : EFTA and NAFTA Customs Union : eliminates trade barriers between member-countries and adopts a common external trade policy. Ex : Andean Pact

B – POLITICAL CASE FOR INTEGRATION Costs, painful adjustments Concerns over national sovereignty C – IMPEDIMENTS TO INTEGRATION
III - THE CASE FOR/AGAINST REGIONAL INTEGRATION A -  TRADE CREATION Occurs when high-cost domestic producers are replaced by low-cost external suppliers within the free trade area. B -  TRADE DIVERSION Occurs when lower-cost external suppliers are replaced by higher-cost suppliers within the free trade area. A regional free trade agreement will benefit the wold only if the amount of trade exceeds the amount it diverts. In theory, GATT and WTO rules should ensure that a free trade agreement does not result in trade diversion.
