In an analysis of future U.S. trade and investment relations with key Asian countries, contributors to this volume discuss U.S. relations with Korea, Taiwan, the People's Republic of China, Japan, and the ASEAN countries. The same issues are also considered from the perspective of each Asian country. The authors explore how the new regime established under the World Trade Organization will affect the conduct of international trade.
