摘　　要：为了应对全球化的挑战,美国与周边的墨西哥和加勒比海地区(CBI)国家合作,形成了一条以纵向一体化为核心的区域性纺织服装生产网络(regional production network,RPN)。由于RPN合作国家是美国纺织产业重要的出口市场,因此后者在该网络中具有既得利益。美国政府进而签订的《中芙纺织品协议》(以下简称"协议")旨在抑制后配额时代中国输美服装类产品对该RPN的冲击。本文就"协议"的实施对相关贸易流量的影响进行了评估。结果显示,"协议"已经对中国输美服装类产品产生贸易破坏效应,而墨西哥和CBI国家对美国的服装出口则从中受益。然而,研究并未显示"协议"的实施有助于美国增加纱线、面料等纺织类产品向RPN合作国家的出口,因而"协议"对美国纺织产业的实际保护效应有必要予以反思。本文的研究结论对于2008年"协议"到期后相关政策的制定和调整具有重要的借鉴意义。This study focuses on the U.S.-led regional production network(RPN)in the America textile and apparel industry which in- volves the vertical cooperation between the U.S.who providing the textile mill products and countries such as Mexico and those in the CBI region who functioning as the apparel manufacturing bases.It is tested that due to the vested interests in this RPN,U.S. textile industry pushed the establishment of the U.S.-China Textile Agreement with the purposes of curbing the Chinese apparel imports which are regarded as the competing threat to the survival of the RPN.The effects of the agreement are also assessed in this study from the trade flow perspective.The results indicate that the agreement has exerted significant negative influences on the growth of U.S.apparel imports from China while positively encouraged the imports from Mexico and CBI countries.However, there is no proof that the agreement has increased the U.S.textile mill exports to its RPN partners and this brought the efficacy of the agreement in protecting the interests of the U.S.textile industry into question.The findings of this study have important im- plications for the possible policy making in regard of the extension or renewal of the agreement.
