Description
This second volume of a study which has resulted from a Ford Foundation project considers how developing countries should participate in global negotiations governing international trade. It deals with specific problem areas, such as textile trade agriculture and services as well as the trade objectives of eleven developing countries - Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, Mexico, China, South Korea, India, the Philippines, Nigeria, Kenya and Tanzania. What emerges is a panorama of divergent trade interests among developing countries, the trade importance of rapidly growing countries such as Korea, the central role of debt and trade linkages for these countries and the special trade problems facing African economies. The editor has previously edited or written 19 books including the first volume of this study, "General Equilibrium Trade Policy Modelling", "Perspectives On a U.S. - Canadian Free Trade Agreement" and "Trade Liberalization Among Major World Trading Areas".
