I finally finish paper. Topic is NAFTA and Mexico's pork industry.
First part describes NAFTA. Second part explain trade theory. And last part examine theoritical reasoning. As I focus on Tariff, NAFTA is beneficial for Mexico's pork Industory. In fact, the amount of pork import from US increased drastically in 2004. This is because Mexico became a processing factory in North America. I needed to examine Mexico's import and export. But I couldn't find out such a data, and I discussed Mexico's pork industory only based on US import/ export data. Plus, I didn't discuss subsidies, corruption of burocratic in Mexico, and marginalization of Mexico's rural area. Some say cheap products supported US subsidies devastates Mexico's small farm. US increased subsidies lately. Mexico's administration is now under the pressure of anti-NAFTA movement, and increases subsidies in order to mitigate political complains. However, some subsidies will be stolen by corrupted burocrats. Liberization distorts inequality in Mexico.
