Abstract

[fre] La zone de libre échange nord-américain : trois stratégies pour un accord . L'Accord de libre échange nord-américain (ALENA) a été signé le 18 décembre 1992 par le Canada, les Etats-Unis et le Mexique. Il devrait entrer en vigueur le 1er janvier 1994, après ratification par les parlements nationaux. Les Etats-Unis, cherchant à donner un nouveau souffle à leur politique commerciale, ont eu un rôle moteur dans les négociations. Ils ont été appuyés par le Mexique, qui consolide par son . adhésion les réformes économiques menées depuis 1982. . Le traité aura sans doute des impacts assez limités aux Etats-Unis et au Canada. En revanche, il pourrait occasionner davantage de bouleversements - fragilité extérieure et ajustements économiques et sociaux - dans le pays qui appelle l'accord de ses voeux les plus vifs, le Mexique.

[ger] Die nordamerikanische Freihandelszone: drei Strategien fur ein Abkommen . Das nordamerikanische Freihandelsabkommen (Nafta) ist am 18. Dezember 1992 von Kanada, Mexiko und den Vereinigten Staaten unterzeichnet worden und soil nach der Ratifizierung durch die nationalen Parlamente am 1. Januar 1994 in Kraft treten. Den Vereinigten Staaten, die ihrer Handelspolitik eine neue Dynamik verleihen wollten, kamen bei den Verhandlungen die Rolle eines Motors zu. Hierbei wurden sie von Mexiko unterstùtzt, das durch seinen Beitritt die seit 1982 eingeleiteten Wirtschaftsreformen konsolidiert. . Fur die Vereinigten Staaten und Kanada wird das Abkommen sicherlich nur wenige Auswirkungen haben. Dagegen kônnte es in Mexiko, dem Land, das sich so fur dessen AbschluB eingesetzt hat, mehr Umwàlzungen bewirken: externe Schwâche sowie wirtschaftliche und soziale Anpassung. [eng] The North American Free Trade Area: three Strategies for an Agreement . The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was signed by Canada, the United States and Mexico on December 1992. It should become law on January 1994, after being ratified by the national parliaments. The United States has played a driving role in the negotiations due to their desire to give a new boost to their trade policy. They have been supported by Mexico, whose membership has strengthened the economic reforms made since 1982. . The treaty will no doubt have a fairly limited effect on the United States and Canada. However, it could generate more upheavals in the form of foreign instability and economic and social adjustments in Mexico, which is pushing for this agreement the most ardently.
