NAFTA and International Trade

From the Paper:

"This paper provides an overview of the North American Free Trade Agreement. It discusses the benefits and goals of the agreement, politics involved, pros and cons, and how the agreement is working in reality since its enactment.

At the micro level, individual exporters earn profits, provide an additional level of employment, and supply convertible foreign exchange which is used to pay for imported goods and services.
