Developing-Country Policies

Constantine Michalopoulos

Chapter 4 in Developing Countries in the WTO, 2001, pp 45-88 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract During the 1990s the developing countries’ trade policies underwent consolidation and further liberalization. Consolidation was important in developing countries such as Chile and Morocco, which had liberalized significantly during the 1980s and needed to ensure continued domestic support for their existing trade regimes. Other developing countries, for example Brazil, the Dominican Republic and Zambia, only began to initiate and implement liberalizing reforms in the 1990s. All developing-country members of the WTO had to make a considerable effort to internalize their commitments under the Uruguay Round agreements. Many developing countries were also especially active in forging closer regional trade links, through preferential trade arrangements with both developing and developed countries.
