Abstract: Abstract This second of two volumes contains eleven studies from a project on Trade Policy and the Developing World supported by the Ford Foundation.1 They form the body of the country study work done on the project and discuss various aspects of the participation of developing countries in the global trading system. The wider purpose of the project is to assess the different options available for developing countries as they approach their participation in the global trading system. These relate not only to the current round of trade negotiations under the GATT, but more broadly to such areas as commodities, debt and trade linkages, and institutional arrangements outside the framework of the GATT. In this introduction, I briefly summarize my impressions of how the eleven countries in the project seem to view their own participation in the global trading system.
