No 1996.21, Working Papers from School of Economics, La Trobe University

Abstract: Sri Lanka has experienced a series of changes in its trade regime since attaining independence from British colonial rule in 1948. During the first decade after independence it continued with a liberal trade regime, until growing balance of payments problems induced a policy shift towards projectionist import substitution policies.
