Please note: the purpose of this diary series is not an argument for or against the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).There have been a great number of diaries written on this topic, and my only goal here is to provide more information regarding what TPP does, and what it doesn't do.
Part one: Understanding free trade agreements can be found here.
In Part One we learned about how free trade agreements work, or don't work, as the case may be. Today we're going to talk about how FTAs are manipulated, and delve a bit deeper into trade statistics.
I'll also attempt to address in more detail some of the questions I was asked yesterday.
