Tyler Cowen at Marginal Revolution notes that the 10th Anniversary of the North American Free Trade Area (NAFTA) is coming up, and marks the anniversary with a posting on the benefits of the agreement for Mexico, here: "10th anniversary for NAFTA".
"...A recent World Bank report confirms this positive view [The view of NAFTA's impact on Mexico expressed by Cowen earlier in the post - Ben]: "without NAFTA Mexican exports would have been around 25 percent lower than the actual numbers, foreign direct investment would have been around 40 percent less and the country's per capita income in 2002 would have been up to 5 percent lower." Here is a summary of the report..."
