The Impact of Trade in This US Presidential Election Year

In a recent article, Inu Manak, an expert in international political economy, discusses how US trade policy has returned to reciprocity. To better understand this topic we invited her to talk to our community of foreign journalists. She talks with Patricia Vasconcellos, Board Member of the AFPC-USA and White House Correspondent for SBT.

Inu Manak is a fellow for trade policy at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) where she researches and writes on policy issues relevant to US trade policy, including topics such trade politics and institutions, trade negotiations, and dispute settlement.

An expert in international political economy, Dr. Manak’s research focuses on U.S. trade policy and the law and politics of the World Trade Organization (WTO).

Her recent book, The Development Dimension: Special and Differential Treatment in Trade was co-authored with James Bacchus, the first chairman of the World Trade Organization’s Appellate Body.

Previously, Dr. Manak was a research fellow at the Cato Institute’s Herbert A. Stiefel Center for Trade Policy Studies and a junior visiting fellow at the Centre for Trade and Economic Integration at the Graduate Institute in Geneva.

Dr. Manak serves on the advisory boards of the TradeExperettes and the Center on Inclusive Trade and Development at Georgetown Law.

She received a PhD in government from Georgetown University, an MA in international affairs from American University’s School of International Service, and a BA in political science (First Class Honors) from Simon Fraser University.
