Trade and Development: Directions for the 21st Century (In Association With Unctad)

2003 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book DescriptionThis book questions what enduring lessons have been learned about the interdependence of international trade and economic development during the last fifty 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 [detailed...]

Trade and Migration: Building Bridges for Global Labour Mobility (Trade and Development)

2004 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book DescriptionExpectations are running high for significant outcomes on the temporary movement of natural persons to supply services ?V known as mode 4 ?V in the current WTO services negotiations. Powerful drivers for liberalization exist, such as increased trade and investment, strengthened global business networks, shortage of skills in developed countries, and increasing export capacity in skilled labor in developing countries. However, stumbling blocks remain. What is the impact of temporary movement on domestic labor markets in developed countries? Does mode 4 contribute to ?brain drain?? in developing countries? And what are the links between mode 4 and the sensitive issue of how countries regulate the entry of foreigners into their territory? Building on a recent groundbreaking OECD/IOM/World Bank seminar, Trade and Migration considers these questions and examines the opportunities and challenges in the current debate as they relate to [detailed...]

Trade and Protectionism (Nber-East Asia Seminar on Economics, Vol 2)

y.
Publisher:
Description: During the first three decades following the Second World War, an increasingly open international trading system led to unprecedented economic growth throughout the world. But in recent years, that openness has been threatened by increased protectionism, regional trading arrangements--Europe 1992 and the U.S.-Canada Free Trade Agreement--and setbacks in negotiations on the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. In Trade and Protectionism , American and East Asian scholars consider the dangersof this trend for the world economy and especially for East Asian countries. The authors look at the current global trading system and at the potential threats to East Asian economies from possible regional arrangements, such as separate trading blocks in the Western Hemisphere and Europe. They cover trade between the United States and Japan, Korea and Japan, and Japanese-East Asian trade policies, trade in agriculture and semiconductors and the frictions that have jeopardized [detailed...]

Trade and Trade-offs: Using Resources, Making Choices, and Taking Risks

y.
Publisher:
Description: What do globalization, the abortion debate, and the decision one makes about what to do about dinner have in common? This and other questions that arise from the necessity of individuals and groups to deal with the who, what, where, when and how of production, distribution, and consumption are addressed in this provocative and witty publication. Street- wise and jaded undergraduates will end up taking a fresh look at their everyday lives and the larger world they will someday manage. Casting aside the idea that `economic` deals only with things that can be measured with money, Smith encourages people to think not just about dollars but also about sense. The emphasis is on the sociocultural costs and benefits involved in making choices. Readers are challenged to rethink many of the usual ways of understanding such everyday concepts as property, capital, poverty and affluence, distribution and exchange, power and authority, rights and privileges versus duties and responsibilities, and [detailed...]

Trade and Traders in Muslim Spain: The Commercial Realignment of the Iberian Peninsula, 900-1500 (Cambridge Studies in Medieval Life and Thought - Fourth Series , No 24)

y.
Publisher:
Description: This volume surveys Iberian international trade from the tenth to the fifteenth century, with particular emphasis on commerce in the Muslim period and on changes brought by Christian conquest of much of Muslim Spain in the thirteenth century. From the tenth to the thirteenth century, markets in the Iberian peninsula were closely linked to markets elsewhere in the Islamic world, and a strong east-west Mediterranean trading network linked Cairo with Cordoba. Following routes along the North African coast, Muslim and Jewish merchants carried eastern goods to Muslim Spain, returning eastwards with Andalusi exports. Situated at the edge of the Islamic west, Andalusi markets were also emporia for the transfer of commodities between the Islamic world and Christian Europe. After the thirteenth century the Iberian peninsula became part of the European economic sphere, its commercial realignment aided by the opening of the Straits of Gibraltar to Christian trade, and by the contemporary demise [detailed...]

Trade and Transformation in Korea, 1876-1945 (Transitions: Asia &, Asian America)

y.
Publisher:
Description: Exploring the interaction among system, state, and society, this book illuminates the social and economic history of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century colonial Korea. Dennis McNamara argues that transformation within and trade abroad, led by rice exports, spurred Korea`s shift from isolation to inclusion in a modern regional system. In his chronicle of the bustling grain export center of Inch on, the author draws an engaging portrait of leading Korean brokers and their efforts to maintain autonomy while cooperating with Japanese grain millers. McNamara contends that Korean precedents of enterprise and guild association, coupled with Japanese colonial patterns of accommodation, deeply affected the emergence of a modern Korean business community. By focusing especially on the role of rice brokers and millers as important agents of change, this study advances our understanding of the formation of the Korean business community and offers valuable insights into the trade history [detailed...]

Trade in Classical Antiquity (Key Themes in Ancient History)

2007 y.
Publisher:
Description: Historians have long argued about the place of trade in classical antiquity: was it the life-blood of a complex, Mediterranean-wide economic system, or a thin veneer on the surface of an underdeveloped agrarian society? Trade underpinned the growth of Athenian and Roman power, helping to supply armies and cities. It furnished the goods that ancient elites needed to maintain their dominance - and yet, those same elites generally regarded trade and traders as a threat to social order. Trade, like the patterns of consumption that determined its development, was implicated in wider debates about politics, morality and the state of society, just as the expansion of trade in the modern world is presented both as the answer to global poverty and as an instrument of exploitation and cultural imperialism. This book explores the nature and importance of ancient trade, considering its ecological and cultural significance as well as its economic aspects. [detailed...]

Trade in Services in the Asia-Pacific Region (Nber-East Asia Seminar on Economics, Vol 11)

Description: In recent years the tremendous growth of the service sector--including international trade in services--has outstripped that of manufacturing in many industrialized nations. As the importance of services has grown, economists have begun to focus on policy issues raised by them and have tried to understand what, if any, differences there are between production and delivery of goods and services. This volume is the first book-length attempt to analyze trade in services in the Asia-Pacific region. Contributors provide overviews of basic issues involved in studying the service sector, investigate the impact of increasing trade in services on the economies of Taiwan, Korea, and Hong Kong, present detailed analyses of specific service sectors (telecommunications, financial services, international tourism, and accounting), and extend our understanding of trade in services beyond the usual concept (measured in balance of payment statistics) to include indirect services and [detailed...]

Trade the Balance of Payments and Exchange Rate Policy in Developing Countries

2003 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book DescriptionThis book is a synthesis of the author?s ideas and research concerning the monetary consequences of trade flows, and the relevance of conventional balance of payments adjustment theory. These ideas are considered mainly in the context of developing countries, many of which suffer from deep structural difficulties and severe foreign exchange shortages. Mainstream economic theory regards the balance of payments to be self-adjusting, meaning that the impact of the balance of payments on the growth and development process is neither considered nor analyzed. In contrast, the author emphasizes the importance of integrating monetary considerations into trade theory and argues that the balance of payments consequences of trade policy need to be carefully addressed. This approach has a number of implications for important issues such as: the sequencing of trade liberalization, the role of the exchange rate in equilibrating the balance of payments, the case for [detailed...]

Description: Trade, Aid and Global Interdependence introduces trade as both concept and activity, placing aid wihting the context of trade in practice. The trend towards the globalization of trade, especially in the light of GATT and its emphasis on greater integration of economies throughout the world, means developing countries increasingly want both trade and aid, as aid alone is insufficient to bring about growth and economic development. Using a number of Third World case studies from Africa, Asia and Central and Latin America, this book analyzes this competitive partnership of mnternational trade and economic development and discusses how various development strategies have been devised to respond to particular economic, social and environmental challenges.
