Abstract
LIMON VILLEGAS, Edgar Samid and GONZALEZ GARCIA, Juan. The RCEP as a new axis of international trade: Analysis and perspectives. Anál. econ. [online]. 2023, vol.38, n.98, pp.47-68. Epub June 19, 2023. ISSN 2448-6655. https://doi.org/10.24275/uam/azc/dcsh/ae/2023v38n98/limon.
The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is analyzed which, according to the theory of economic integration, emphasizes the economic and trade benefits of the trade partnership between countries, particularly in gross domestic product and employment. From the comparative method, we contrast the RCEP with the T-MEC, the European Union and the TIPAT through the analysis of the main goods that the member countries of each trade agreement with each other, as well as with countries outside said agreements. We review the importance of each of the countries that make up the RCEP in terms of their products and trade partners. We hypothesize that the RCEP may become the main trade agreement in Asia-Pacific, thanks to China's economic-trade dynamism. We conclude that the RCEP will be, in the medium term, the new center of gravity of global trade.
