Bu kapsamda, bölgesel entegrasyon anlaşmaları ile ilgili güncel tartışmalar bu anlaşmaların birliğe üye olmayan ülkelere etkileri üzerinde yoğunlaşmıştır.Araştırmanın amacı: Bu çalışmanın amacı, bölgesel entegrasyon anlaşmalarını ve bunların üçüncü ülkeler üzerindeki etkilerini incelemektir. Bu kapsamda bölgesel entegrasyonun ticaret yaratıcı ve ticaret saptırıcı etkileri ele alınmaktadır. Veri kaynakları: Çalışma, bölgesel entegrasyon anlaşmalarının üçüncü ülkelere etkilerini teorik açıdan ele alan bir değerlendirme çalışmasıdır. Çalışmanın veri kaynakları, bölgesel entegrasyon anlaşmalarının etkilerinin araştıran çalışmalardır.Ana tartışma ve sonuçlar: Çalışma bölgesel entegrasyon anlaşmalarının fayda ve maliyetlerinin anlaşmaya üye ülkeler ile üye olmayan ülkeler üzerindeki etkilerini analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma, bölgeselleşme ile üye ülkeler arasında ticaretin önündeki engellerin azaltılmasının yanında üçüncü ülkelerle ticarette ticaretin saptırıcı etkilerinin çıkmasına neden olduğu sonucuna varmıştır

In this context, this study raises the question of the effects of trade creation and trade diversion. Data Sources: The study discusses the impacts of regional integration agreements on third countries from a theoretical approach. The data resources of the study are the research studies conducted on the role impact of regional integration agreements.Main argument and the results: This paper tries to find out how are the benefits and costs of RIAs are divided between member and non-member countries.
