Хороша ли NAFTA для Мексики?
Задумавшись над вопросом, "Как оно к югу от гарницы?", поскольку Дональд Трамп педалирует негатив к НАФТе, погуглил, и обнаружил в целом негативные мнения. Ну типа по росту ВНП на душу населения Мексика занимает 18е место среди 20 стран Латинской Америки, и доля мексиканцев, проживающих за чертой бедности, в 2012м почти такая же, как в 1994м--хотя отдельные секторы экономики могли и выйграть.
Так кто выйграл? Похоже, что только богатые американские инвесторы: While NAFTA's overall financial impact has been generally positive, it has not lived up to the high expectations of its proponents. It has made many U.S. companies and investors rich - and their managements richer. But it has also cost many U.S. manufacturing workers their livelihoods while failing to raise living standards for most Mexicans. Any major market changes not dictated by market forces usually lead to both opportunity and loss, and this has happened with NAFTA.
