• Resumen

  • The article discusses U.S. trade policies. Particular focus is given to the strategic aspects of trade. According to the author, U.S. President Barack Obama's trade policies are designed to revitalize the global trading system as a whole, to promote economic development, and to strengthen U.S. partnerships with other nations. It is suggested that rules-based open trading systems such as the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) are key to continued U.S. influence in global trade. Other topics include trade-led development, opposition to trade agreements, and trade promotion authority.
