Download or read book Trade and Development in Transitional Economics written by Kishor Sharma and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an analysis of the Kyrgyz Republic and Tajikistan whose experiences are equally important to other newly independent countries. These countries were little known to the rest of the world until they gained independence from the FSU. Independence from the FSU brought more challenges than opportunities. Despite huge development potential, based on natural resources, almost all countries in the region continue to suffer from high unemployment and fiscal imbalances. While trade, based on the concept of comparative advantage, is crucial for small economies, as the experience of Singapore and Hong Kong suggests, it has not played a significant role in accelerating growth and alleviating poverty in the Central Asian countries. The book sheds light on these issues which can provide useful development lessons, not only to newly independent countries, but also to other developing countries which are in the path of global integration.

Book excerpt: The process of rural-urban transformation presents both opportunities and challenges for development. If managed effectively, it can result in growth that benefits everyone; if managed poorly, it can lead to stark welfare disparities and entire regions cut off from the advantages of agglomeration economies. The importance of rural-urban transition has been confirmed by two consecutive World Development Reports: WDR 2008 Agriculture for Development; and WDR 2009 Reshaping Economic Geography. Focusing on Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, this book picks up where the WDRs left off, investigating the influence of country conditions and policies on the pace, pattern, and consequences of rural-urban transition and suggesting strategies to ensure that its benefits results in shared improvements in well-being. The book uncovers vast inequalities, whether between two regions of one country, between rural and urban areas, or within cities themselves. The authors find little evidence to suggest that these inequalities will automatically diminish as countries develop: empirical and qualitative analysis suggests that spatial divides are mainly a function of country conditions, policies and institutions. By implication, policymakers must take active steps to ensure that rural-urban transition results in shared growth. Spatially unbiased provision of health and education services is crucial to ensuring that the benefits of transition are shared by all. But connective infrastructure and targeted interventions also emerge as important considerations, even in countries with severely constrained fiscal and administrative capacity. The authors suggest steps for navigating the tricky political economy of land reforms. And they alert readers to potential spillover effects that mean that policies designed for one space can have unintended consequences on another.Policymakers and development experts, as well as anyone concerned with the impact of rural-urban transition on growth and equity, will find this book a thought-provoking and informative read.
Download or read book World Development Report 2020 written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global value chains (GVCs) powered the surge of international trade after 1990 and now account for almost half of all trade. This shift enabled an unprecedented economic convergence: poor countries grew rapidly and began to catch up with richer countries. Since the 2008 global financial crisis, however, the growth of trade has been sluggish and the expansion of GVCs has stalled. Meanwhile, serious threats have emerged to the model of trade-led growth. New technologies could draw production closer to the consumer and reduce the demand for labor. And trade conflicts among large countries could lead to a retrenchment or a segmentation of GVCs. World Development Report 2020: Trading for Development in the Age of Global Value Chains examines whether there is still a path to development through GVCs and trade. It concludes that technological change is, at this stage, more a boon than a curse. GVCs can continue to boost growth, create better jobs, and reduce poverty provided that developing countries implement deeper reforms to promote GVC participation; industrial countries pursue open, predictable policies; and all countries revive multilateral cooperation.
Download or read book Agricultural Trade and Rural Development in the Middle East and North Africa Recent Developments and Prospects written by A. Dean DeRosa and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: February 1997 More robust, dynamic growth could significantly boost sustainable economic growth and rural development in countries in the Middle East and North Africa with a comparative advantage in agriculture. But high levels of protection in many of those countries contribute to overvalued exchange rates and a significant bias against agriculture. The proposed solution: trade liberalization, especially open regionalism. Despite petroleum's prominence in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), agriculture remains important to most of the region's economies. And more robust and more dynamic agricultural growth could significantly boost sustainable economic growth and rural development in those countries. An appropriate avenue for improving agricultural growth is to expand agricultural exports in MENA countries with appreciable-to-large agricultural sectors and comparative advantage in cereal grains, agricultural raw materials, fruits and vegetables, and many categories of livestock and dairy products. But high levels of protection in many MENA countries, especially for manufactures and some food products, contribute to overvalued exchange rates and a significant bias against agriculture. Trade liberalization and other economic reforms to promote agriculture and improve rural welfare in MENA might be pursued through regional economic cooperation, but should be guided as much as possible by the principles of open regionalism - under which trade concessions negotiated between regional trading partners would be extended unconditionally to all trading partners, including trading partners outside the region. This paper - a product of the International Trade Division, International Economics Department - was presented to the Fourth Annual World Bank Conference on Environmentally Sustainable Development, Rural Well-Being: From Vision to Action, September 25-27, 1996, Washington, DC.
