미주자유무역지대(FTAA) 협상에 있어서 피그게임의 적용에 관한 연구

A Study of the Application of Pig Game on FTAA Negotiation

This paper discusses the FTAA which is currently in a long coma with no signs of life whatsoever for the past several years. Also the paper investigates the confrontation between pro-FTAA group leading by U.S.A. and anti-FTAA group leading by PTA to the extent of political economic aspects. The FTAA, which was being negotiated by 34 countries of the Americas, was intended to be the most far-reaching trade agreement in history. Although it was based on the model of the NAFTA, it went far beyond NAFTA in its scope and power. The FTAA would have introduced into the Western Hemisphere all the disciplines of the proposed services agreement of the WTO with the powers of the failed Multilateral Agreement on Investment (MAI), to create a new trade powerhouse with sweeping new authority over the Americas. The failure of the Mar del Plata summit to set out a comprehensive agenda to keep FTAA alive has meant that there is little chance for a comprehensive trade agreement in the foreseeable future. Finally, the paper investigates the background of forming PTA against FTAA and thus an useful game tool of pig game is applied onto FTAA/PTA confrontation in order to seek policy implication for the future of FTAA.
