Titre : Implementing competition-related provisions in regional trade agreements : is it possible to obtain development gains? Type de document : document multimédia Editeur : Genève 10 [Suisse] : UNCTAD Année de publication : 2007 Importance : 198 p Présentation : CDR-73 Format : DVD Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Développement économique Tags : Développement économique Commerce mondial Commerce de libre-échange Politique de développement Index. décimale : CD-rom Résumé : The increasing share of developing countries in world trade and investment flows has been accompanied since the 1990s in particular by a proliferation of bilateral and regional trade agreements (RTAs), many of them containing provisions on competition policy. The same period has also seen the adoption of competition law and policy in virtually all corners of the globe.
This new generation of trade agreements has shifted the focus away from simple tariff reduction and towards ‘behind-the-border’ issues more generally. In terms of the relationship between trade and competition, competition provisions in RTAs have been viewed as one way of ensuring that the gains from tariff liberalization are not eroded by the substitution of private restrictive practices for government trade barriers. UNCTAD examined the effects of these provisions in a 2005 publication on Competition Provisions in Regional Trade Agreements: How to Assure Development Gains, which also looked at the strengths and weaknesses of the various institutional arrangements in place dealing with regional competition problems.
By way of follow-up, this publication considers the interrelationship between competition law and policy, economic development and trade. It shows the constraints faced by developing countries in using existing cooperation mechanisms and suggests ways to foster a culture of competition in developing-country markets. The book also stresses the importance of improving the institutional capacities of recently established competition authorities in developing countries to deal with anti-competitive practices in their own markets and help their enterprises deal with them in international markets.
This volume, part of UNCTAD’s analytical and capacity-building work to assist developing countries on issues related to competition law and policies, makes a useful contribution to the policy debate, raising awareness and enhancing expertise among all stakeholders.
The publication also contains reports of a meeting in Geneva and a series of regional seminars held in Turkey, the Republic of Korea, South Africa and Brazil, dedicated to this topic besides a preliminary dissemination held in Geneva. Together with the chapters, they provide an invaluable aid to policy makers wanting to understand the negotiation and implementation of regional and bilateral trade agreements with respect to competition policies and they underscore the importance of competition policy to development.En ligne : http://unctad.org/en/pages/PublicationArchive.aspx?publicationid=903 Implementing competition-related provisions in regional trade agreements : is it possible to obtain development gains?

Développement économiqueTags : Politique de développement Industrialisation Inde Economie Inégalités Justice sociale Index. décimale : 09.04 Asie Résumé : India is a country of great diversity. The commonly used indicators of 'quality of life' (such as life expectancy, infant mortality, and literacy) vary tremendously between the different states, rivalling international contrasts between very low performing countries and very high achieving ones. This volume of essays reflects an attempt to draw lessons from the disparate experiences within India, rather than from contrasts with the experiences of other countries. It supplements Drèze and Sen's India: Economic Development and Social Opportunity, which studies what we can learn from international comparisons of policies, actions, and achievements.

Kicking away the ladder / Ha-Joon Chang
Titre : Kicking away the ladder : development strategy in historical perspective Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ha-Joon Chang, Auteur Editeur : London : Anthem Press Année de publication : 2002 Importance : 187 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Développement économique Tags : Economie de développement Stratégie de développement Bonne gouvernance Politique industrielle Index. décimale : 06.01 Développement - Généralités Résumé : How did the rich countries really become rich? In this provocative study, Ha-Joon Chang examines the great pressure on developing countries from the developed world to adopt certain 'good policies' and 'good institutions', seen today as necessary for economic development. Adopting a historical approach, Dr Chang finds that the economic evolution of now-developed countries differed dramatically from the procedures that they now recommend to poorer nations. His conclusions are compelling and disturbing: that developed countries are attempting to 'kick away the ladder' with which they have climbed to the top, thereby preventing developing counties from adopting policies and institutions that they themselves have used.

Développement économiqueTags : Economie politique Politique de développement Nigéria Bangladesh Impact du développement Agences de développement Résumé : Politics often explains where development assistance has been effective and where it has not. Yet, until the 2000s there has been little focus by development agencies on political issues. This has begun to change with political economy analysis now being more systematically used by development agencies to understand the real world. Much valuable work has been done in recent years in developing new analytical frameworks, generating fresh insights and applying these to problem-solving. Nigeria and Bangladesh are two positive examples where PEA has demonstrated its analytical and operational usefulness. Much remains to be done in these countries and more widely, to ensure stronger uptake of political economy analysis. On the supply side this includes getting the „product? right, and better communicating the message. On the demand side, there is a need to take more account of the incentives facing development agencies and to gather more systematic evidence on the operational impact of political economy analysis to date.
