Synopsis

The developing world is changing rapidly. Trade reforms are now a central feature of development plans and replace systems of protection that had been built up during the post-war period but which failed to deliver lasting economic growth and prosperity. This publication analyzes the experiences of eleven countries in East Asia and Latin America (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Hong Kong, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand) which are among the first developing countries to succeed in fostering enduring reforms. Their economic transformation, and the contribution of OECD countries to it, has produced exceptional benefits both for their own populations and for the world economy. No other publication to date gives such a broad perspective on the question of trade liberalisation.
