Description
Paperback. This book examines core issues with respect to the effect of export restrictions; the impact on processing and welfare; the consequences of foreign ownership of the resource; and the possibility of utilising export restrictions as a retaliatory strategy against escalating tariff structures. It also examines the impact of liberalization of processed good markets. The book employs a combination of formal general equilibrium modelling and counterfactual simulation using computable genera equilibrium (CGE) techniques, with the New Zealand forest industry used as a case study throughout. The book makes a contribution to the literature in this field by incorporating foreign ownership into an extensive formal analysis of processing incentives, developing a new CGE model of the New Zealand economy, utilising this model to evaluate the costs of export restrictions, and utilising the GTAP to provide insights into the possible effect of the APEC Early Voluntary Sector Liberalisation strategy.
