Should the US Continue to Grant Most Favored Nation Trade Status to China?
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper presenting the universalist's argument that yes, the US should continue to trade with China under the most favorable conditions possible. The paper presents the conservative, and some say uncaring, view as described by economics scholars from the Brookings and Cato Institutes. Those who claim that human rights issues should be paramount are right, but the methods the most liberal would choose are economically misguided. As the paper argues and concludes, human rights issues are best served by keeping the freest form of trade possible with China, thereby not only keeping the country and their human rights issues in the world's spotlight, but providing an economic basis with which to implement change, as well. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
