Abstract
This paper reviews the treatment of services in a sample of free trade
agreements. Some of the questions motivating this review are:
1. The extent to which the agreements have a common structure and
content, which will facilitate their amalgamation and the extension of
their conditions to current non-members;
2. The extent to which the agreements go beyond the commitments made
by their members in the GATS;
3. The likelihood that preferential agreements of the type studied here will
have a significant effect on regional services trade.
