This book questions what enduring lessons have been learnt about
the interdependence of international trade and economic development
during the last 50 years. Since the end of the Cold War and the
advent of the WTO, developing countries have been forced to face
the choice of whether, and to what extent, to integrate
economically with the rest of the world. The key issue of
international political economy is emphasized. The authors argue
that while integration through trade has become increasingly
necessary for successful development, it rapidly encounters a
series of problems that remain to be resolved. These range from
increasing inequality and instability, the vagaries of WTO rules,
persistent agricultural protection in developed countries, through
to inadequate finance and new waves of technological innovation.
Underlying all these concerns, however, is the deeper question of
how much the developing countries can influence the setting of the
rules of the international system. Trade and Development examines
all the major topics in the area of trade and development, along
with proposals for new directions for UNCTAD. The book will be of
great interest to academics, researchers, NGOs and policymakers
involved in international and development economics.
