Eds. Note: This article was written in the early 1990s, during the last year of George Bush's presidency. Since then NAFTA negotiations have been completed and the treaty is now in operation. An updating of the article would require considerable statistical revision, as well as further analysis of events. Neither the statistics nor the events; however, require a revision of the interpretative perspective advanced in the article.
