The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a large regional agreement that involves 12 nations, including Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Singapore, the United States, and Vietnam. It is part of a larger Asian foreign policy agenda and has been considered highly controversial. The “Headlines: Making the Case for Trade” reviews the main arguments for free trade and argues that freer trade results in a wider variety of goods at lower prices, firms engaged in trade tend to have higher wages than other firms, that gains will come from the elimination of tariff, among others.
