  • The Handbook of Latin American Trade in Manufactures

    Gheltenham, Glos.: Edward Elgar Publishing Limited

    This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the key issues surrounding the rapid expansion of Latin America’s trade in manufactures. It examines the region's changing role as a provider of traditional labor and natural resource intensive manufactures, and the effects of macroeconomic policies, trade policy reforms and structural adjustment policies on the dynamic movements in comparative advantages, economies of scale, technological transfers and the globalization of industries, all of which…

    This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the key issues surrounding the rapid expansion of Latin America’s trade in manufactures. It examines the region's changing role as a provider of traditional labor and natural resource intensive manufactures, and the effects of macroeconomic policies, trade policy reforms and structural adjustment policies on the dynamic movements in comparative advantages, economies of scale, technological transfers and the globalization of industries, all of which are altering the productivity of skilled and semi-skilled labor, capital, and technological capabilities of the region’s countries. The systematic treatment of these issues makes the book indispensable for anyone interested in Latin America’s transformation in the world economy.

  • Imperfect Competition and International Commodity Trade: Theory, Dynamics, and Policy Modelling (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1991)

    Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1991

    This book offers a unified treatment of the theory, econometric modeling, and policy evaluation of international commodity trade, and it brings together recent theories of the structure of trade and advances in applied econometrics. Although considerable progress has recently been made in identifying the major determinants of trade, the analyses published in the international trade literature have been almost wholly devoted to the exports of industrialized counties.

    This book offers a unified treatment of the theory, econometric modeling, and policy evaluation of international commodity trade, and it brings together recent theories of the structure of trade and advances in applied econometrics. Although considerable progress has recently been made in identifying the major determinants of trade, the analyses published in the international trade literature have been almost wholly devoted to the exports of industrialized counties. In this book recent theories of the structure of trade, and advances in applied econometrics, are brought together to provide a unified treatment of trade in the major exports of the developing countries. The book goes beyond mere description of old and new policy issues and of modeling methodologies, and offers a rigorous treatment of the nature and structure of the key relationships governing international commodity trade.
