This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade liberalization is assumed to be the driving force of economic development of the developing countries. China and Sri Lanka have gradually opened their economies to foreign trade with the expectation of eliminating poverty which is the main cause of food insecurity. Though both countries possess some similar characteristics, they are different in size in the world market. Sri Lanka is regarded as a small economy while China is known as a large economy which has economic power to influence on world market. Hence, the main purpose of this study is to investigate whether trade liberalization has differently influenced on food security of China and Sri Lanka. The study employed time series multiple regression technique to investigate the effect of trade liberalization on food security of the two countries for the 1980-2009 period. The findings of the study supports the statement that trade liberalization and has not significantly influenced on food security of China. However, it is found a negative and weak relationship between trade liberalization and food security with regards to Sri Lanka. The key variable significantly influenced on the food security of two countries is the real GDP level and it shows a strong positive association with food security during the study period. The changes of imported food prices have been a key influential factor in determining food security of Sri Lanka but were not a significant factor to influence to the food security of China.

Book excerpt: This paper examines the process of Sri Lanka's trade liberalization and its impact on exports and imports. The primary objective of the study is to estimate impact of trade liberalization on exports and imports of Sri Lanka. Secondary data is used to estimate effects of trade liberalization on exports and imports for the period from 1970 to 2011. In estimating impacts of trade liberalization on export and import sectors total time period is divided into two sub periods of before trade liberalization i.e. (1970-1977) and after trade liberalization i.e. (1977-2011). The study mainly employs simple and multiple regression models to disentangle trade effects. The main empirical results suggest that total exports and imports have grown at a higher rate during the closed economic era than in the open economic era. Further, the study finds that trade liberalization has increased imports by more than exports in Sri Lanka.

This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the performance and impact of the India–Sri Lanka free trade agreement over the past decade and suggests the way forward. India became an important source of imports for Sri Lanka immediately after the implementation of the free trade agreement. Bilateral trade between the countries increased steadily thereafter, with Sri Lankan commodities finding a large market in India. The composition of trade also changed with an increased number of new goods being traded. The book computes indices and suggests scope for deepening economic cooperation between the two countries by pruning the negative lists for trade in goods, identifying potential investment, and suggesting policies for expanding cooperation in services.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is poverty and how do we measure it? What is the link between inequality and poverty? What can governments do to alleviate poverty and inequality? Does economic growth reduce poverty in the long run? These are some important research questions that are addressed in this book. It brings together important researchers and university professors to offer some analytical insights into the field of poverty, inequality, and public policies.

The reader of this book will find it concise, with a clearly defined research methodology and findings, and easy to understand. Benefiting of recent statistical data and practical experience from various countries around the world, the findings and conclusions might be helpful to academia and policy makers to find better answers to poverty and inequality in the future.
Download or read book The Sri Lankan Economy written by Prema-chandra Athukorala and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2017-10-01 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a pivotal period in Sri Lanka's economic development. The end of conflict opens a door for accelerated economic growth and poverty reduction. Reform is needed to regain momentum because fiscal imbalances and rising public debt could jeopardize macroeconomic stability. The economy would benefit from significant trade and commercial policy reform. The labor market suffers from sluggish growth of formal sector employment and from skills mismatches, which can be addressed by changes in education policy and systems. The book analyzes these and related critical constraints on the Sri Lankan economy, and proposes a set of policy reforms that would lay the foundations for more rapid and inclusive development.
