Chapter 1 in Developing Countries and the Global Trading System, 1989, pp 3-25 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This first of two volumes contains eleven wide-ranging thematic studies from a multi-country Ford Foundation project on Developing Countries and the Global Trading System.2 How developing countries should approach their participation in the global trading system defines their subject matter. They outline some of their broad strategic options3 along with what seem to be the directions being taken on global trade issues in the various project countries.4 The chapters which follow evaluate the negotiating options for developing countries within the existing multilateral trade policy framework, including GATT and the Uruguay Round. They also ask what they might seek in terms of restructuring global arrangements so as to accommodate issues of concern to them.
