The Importance Of Maine's Economic Ties With Canada: Some Thoughts Related To The East-West Highway, Richard E. Mueller
The Importance Of Maine's Economic Ties With Canada: Some Thoughts Related To The East-West Highway, Richard E. Mueller
Maine Policy Review
Whether to build an east-west highway across central Maine has been widely debated in recent months and, regardless of where one stands on the issue, all agree it is important to study the idea further. In this article, Richard Mueller addresses Maine's economic linkages with Canada and assesses how an east-west highway would affect them. He focuses on cross border traffic flows, inter-provincial truck activity, Canadian-American trade, and tourism, concluding that there is little doubt an east-west highway would bring economic benefits to northern and central Maine. Yet he cautions policymakers to consider the investment carefully. Highways are two-way streets …

Japanese U.S. Auto Transplant Production: An Analysis Of The Roles Of Vers And The Exchange Rate, Michael Cornstubble
University Avenue Undergraduate Journal of Economics

The author develops two hypotheses for theoretical analysis of the factors contributing to production decisions. The first is that the voluntary export restraints (VERs) imposed on the Japanese from 1981-1985 are responsible for bringing the transplants to the U.S. and for creating …

Winning The Marathon: A Reconsideration Of The Development Effects Of Neo-Classical Trade Practices, Peter Weylie, Jean-Pierre Guevremont
University Avenue Undergraduate Journal of Economics
This paper focuses on the trading policies of developed nations, specifically import quotas, and their positive and negative effects on developing countries. We hope to show that the case is not as polar as was once believed and instead focus on how the current literature suggests that the real effects of free-trade are shrouded in nuance and circumstance. Our starting point will be an analysis of the fashionable neo-liberal trade theory and its impact on development, making special reference to the Multi-Fibre Agreement (MFA). We will then turn our attention to the shortcomings of the neo-liberal approach, and provide a …
