Artha Vijnana, 2013, vol. 55, issue 3, 239-251

Abstract: This paper considers a competitive general equilibrium model of a small open less developed economy suffering from unemployment problem in the adult labour market on the one hand, and from the existence of a child labour market on the other hand. It shows that trade restrictive policy may not be effective in curtailing child labour incidence. Moreover, it will aggravate the urban adult unemployment problem.
