ABSTRACT

Chapter 19 consists of a simulation of a hypothetical case on trade policy decision-making process. In particular, it is a role-playing exercise designed to reproduce as close as possible the realities of what happens behind the scenes as far as trade policy is concerned. The objective is to provide students with a practical experience through which they can learn and appreciate the often-complicated dynamics of trade policy making. In this exercise, they will have an opportunity to apply all the knowledge acquired in prior chapters.
