Resolving possible tensions in ASEAN's future trade: using "Analytic Hierarchy Process."(Association of Southeast Asian Nations)
Article Abstract:
A quantitative analysis using the Analytic Hierarchy Process reveals the possibility of a solution of future conflicts between the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and its main trading partners, Europe and the US. The conflict may arise due to different perceptions of some social and environmental issues. A cooperative approach among the ASEAN members to improving social and environmental standards is the most appropriate solution for avoiding conflicts with trading partners and for sustaining the future growth of trade.

Is trade liberalization harmful to the environment? An alternative view
Article Abstract:
A comparison of environmental quality prior to and immediately following the implementation of trade liberalization was conducted. The results, achieved using a partial equilibrium strategic trade framework, show that trade liberalization can contribute to improving the quality of the environment. The findings, which were tested under the Bertrand and Cournot competition models, were sustained for both partial and total trade liberalization.
