Handel wewnątrzregionalny produktami kultury i przemysłów kreatywnych wybranych ugrupowań integracyjnych
Intra-regional trade in cultural and creative goods in selected regional groupings

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to identify trends in the development of intra-regional trade in trade in cultural and creative industries (CCI) of selected integration groups. The following indicators were used to assess changes in intra-regional trade in CCI goods: intraregional trade shares and intra-regional trade intensity index. The research shows that in the period 2005–2015 in three of the four analyzed groups (EU, NAFTA and ASEAN), the CCI goods trade was targeted at members of the group, while in one of them (MERCOSUR) – outside the grouping. The share of intra-regional trade in CCI trade in the analyzed groups was permanently lower than in their total trade. EU-25, MERCOSUR and NAFTA showed a lower intensity of internal trade in CCI goods than in trade in all products, while in ASEAN in some years the intensity of intra-regional trade in CCI goods was higher than the intensity of total internal trade. One of the reasons for the smaller role of internal trade in the CCI exchange than in the total exchange can be considered lower level of liberalization of trade in CCI goods than total goods, which results from the specificity of trade policy in trade with CCI products.
