United States/Chile Free Trade Agreement

Abstract: 12 pages in length. The meeting of minds between Chile and the United States has brought about a long awaited coupling pertaining to free trade. Chile responded enthusiastically when presented with the opportunity to become a part of 1994's North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) but because of the issue of presidential fast-track trade negotiation authority, the merger did not come to fruition. Now, nearly a decade later -- after negotiations began in the year 2000 -- Chile and America have come to their own agreement with regard to free trade, one that is both historic and comprehensive in nature. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
