EU Trade Growth

The book provides context by tracing the evolution of EU trade policy and its theoretical underpinnings, acknowledging that real-world outcomes are often more complex than theoretical models suggest. It emphasizes the importance of understanding these nuanced effects to craft effective policies that mitigate potential negative consequences and ensure that the gains from trade are more broadly shared.

The structure of the book progresses from introducing the theoretical framework and methodology, to focusing on specific case studies of EU trade agreements, and finally synthesizing the findings with policy recommendations.
