The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership among eleven key nations of the Pacific Rim has already expanded trade and economic cooperation among the Parties. It also serves to encourage political cooperation among them and has served as a model for future 'wide and deep' free trade agreements. The chapters of this book will provide readers with a detailed understanding of the CPTPP's coverage, including provisions relating to tariff elimination, customs rules of origin, agriculture, sanitary and phytosanitary measures, technical barriers to trade, telecommunications, intellectual property, investment and investor–state arbitration, financial and other services, government procurement, state-owned enterprises, electronic commerce and digital trade, small and medium-sized enterprises, competition law, labor and environmental protection, dispute settlement, and many others. No international lawyer, economist, trade negotiator, or enterprise can afford not to take advantage of the opportunities for business that the CPTPP offers. This book has been written by CPTPP negotiators, experts, and practitioners.
'From TPP to CPTPP nothing much changed other than the disappearance of the United States from the list of signatories. This model FTA includes provisions on the most avant-garde issues in international trade, and will surely provide a model for future FTAs. In this volume, the editors managed to bring together an amazing wealth of talent, and assigned them the task to explain the salient features of the CPTPP. The result is the most comprehensive discussion on what is proving to be a mainstay in international trade relations.'
