Trade Liberalisation And The Poverty Of Nations |
A.P. Thirlwall, Professor of Applied Economics, University of Kent, Canterbury, UK and Penélope Pacheco-López, Economic Consultant
|
|
|
A concise and eloquent critique of free trade.
‘Free-trade fundamentalism is gradually making way for a more nuanced and historically well-informed understanding of the role that trade policy plays in economic development. Thirlwall and Pacheco-López provide an excellent review of the relevant literature as well as a sophisticated critique of the earlier, simplistic views. As they explain, it is the details – the timing, sequencing, and context – that determine whether liberalization will succeed.’
– Dani Rodrik, Harvard University, US
