Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third Annual Bank Conference on Development in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) focuses on trade liberalization policy, specifically " open regionalism, " a term coined to describe the fact that 1) regionalism has gone hand in hand with unilateral trade opening:statistics on tariff and non-tariff measures affecting imports show that protectionist policies have been dismantled in the major LAC countries during the last decade; 2) regionalism has gone hand in hand with a substantial liberalization of investment regimes:provisions, including national treatment provisions, in regional trading arrangements show that several LAC countries treat foreign direct investment on exactly the same footing as domestic investment; and 3) most LAC countries are willing to participate in building a hemispheric free-trade zone and have been active, pro-liberalization members of the World Trade Organization (WTO). Speeches emphasized the political returns from trade integration:reciprocal lock-in, alliances created among pro-reform factions, pro-integration movements across countries, civil society integration, more-likely peaceful settlements to disputes, and general advancement of harmony in the Western Hemisphere through atmospherics, through positive incentive structures, and through cross-country coalitions. Because these positive linkages are largely implicit and not unduly burdensome, they make regional integration consistent with convergence toward global trade integration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report of the proceedings of the Second Annual Bank Conference on Development in Latin America and the Caribbean (ABCD-LAC) focuses on prospects for reducing poverty and improving inequality. Latin America is one of two regions in which the incidence of poverty has increased over the last ten years. Not only has the number of poor increased, but also has the proportion of the poor. This region has the most pronounced income disparity of all developing regions in the world, and poverty is becoming a predominantly urban phenomenon. The crises in Mexico and Argentina have vividly demonstrated that economic shocks can have severe consequences on both income distribution and the incidence of poverty. Among the special groups identified as needing assistance are indigenous people, women--particularly female heads of households, and children. Conference outcomes include the need to create societies where equal opportunities are accessible to all; the importance of creating conditions for human capital development; the view that public policy must integrate women into any poverty-alleviating strategy; the major role for the press and the media in influencing communities and their behavior toward less-privileged groups; the expansion of access to maternal and child services and to credit to support entrepreneurship; and the need to build the capacity of indigenous communities while preserving their identity.
