Agricultural Policy Reforms and Harmonization/ Convergence/compatibility: the Case of Mexico

چکیده
This paper is divided into three parts. The first summarizes the main conclusions of Sumner and Hallstrom's paper "Commodity Policy Compatibility with Free Trade Agreement" and makes some suggestions for further research. The second part presents some thoughts concerning Mexico's domestic agricultural policies in relation to the authors' analysis on the theme of the Workshop. The discussion finishes by presenting the reasons why the exclusion of domestic agricultural commitments in NAFTA was sensible for Mexico.
