Why NAMA Liberalisation is Good for Developing Countries

Philippe Legrain

The World Economy, 2006, vol. 29, issue 10, 1349-1362

Abstract: This paper reviews the criticisms that have been made of the view that trade liberalisation benefits developing countries. In particular, it focuses on mainstream NGOs’ criticisms of the NAMA negotiations. The paper firmly concludes that the belief that trade liberalisation hampers development opportunities is mistaken. Developing countries have a strong interest in a successful outcome to the NAMA negotiations and the Doha Round as a whole.
