Introduction
Most application of economic policy is done on either the national, supranational or subnational scales. Seldom is economic policy enacted on the non-national scale.

There is a corollary, in Antarctica, where various nations have signed a treaty committing to scientific activity only on that continent, and not economic activity. Yet, realistically, with space the horse is well out of the barn. Nations all over the world have launched satellites, thus far, and the more powerful nations… Continue Reading...
oil prices should support economic growth that is stronger, decrease inflation, and enhance external and fiscal balances, all of which ought to decrease macroeconomic susceptibilities (Baffes et al., 2015).

In that sense, once OPT has outlived its social and political useless, the fact that it was always rather useless economically becomes more of a blatant liability.
For its part, H&M should not care all that much. It will buy from the producer with the competitive advantage – the lowest cost producer that can meet quality specs. The OPT only matters to the extent that its existence causes tariffs on textiles from low-cost producing nations to be… Continue Reading...
