Abstract
Using the evolution of American trade laws as timeline, this thesis explores how domestic and international political-economic environments influenced US Trade Laws and how the USTR came into existence. Then it analyzes the negotiation frameworks and the political setting of the USTR. By analyzing USTR’s interactions with the president, other trade-related agencies, the Congress and interest groups, I find that “political cover from the President” is the most important power the USTR needs in forming US trade policies. Lastly, by comparing the trade negotiation structures of the USTR and Taiwan’s trade negotiating agency, this paper sheds light on how Taiwan may improve its trade negotiation in the future.
