| description |
Developing countries have an enormous
stake in the new round of World Trade Organization (WTO)
negotiations, taking place now, and scheduled to be
completed by January 1, 2005. Their full participation in
the global trading system could lift and additional 300
million people our of poverty by 2015. Since 1970, these
countries have increased their share in all trade, from
one-quarter to one-third. Most of these gains, however, have
come from increased exports of manufactured goods, which
primarily benefit the middle-income developing countries.
Agricultural products, historically the more important
exports for poor countries, have lagged far behind. The main
reason for this is the protection - in the form of subsidies
and other support, running at roughly U$S 1 billion per day
- afforded agriculture in industrial countries. This is more
than six times all development assistance. This report
contains results of region-specific studies that will prove
a vital resource for policymakers, analysts, and others
working in the development field. It provides answers to
questions such as, What lessons were learned from the
Uruguay Round? What is the relationship between trade
liberalization, and rural poverty? And, What is the role of
the international development community in fostering a
trading system that will result in development? The authors
argue that only by reshaping the world's trading
system, and reducing the barriers to trade, can truly global
expansion take place. |
