I'd just like to point out that with with tariffs and quotas on a downward trend between most countries, free trade "trading blocs" seem tobe the way of the future. especially since many of the blocs can bypass more easily the requirements of the WTO. while there can be cultural issues regarding the setup of these things... witness the same complaints that came out when NAFTA was being negotiated... they usually benefit all countries involved in the long run.
