Abstract
Realizing the promise of the new global
initiatives to expand trade requires concerted effort to
move development to center stage in trade policy
formulation. This report is dedicated to that agenda. It
begins with a review of global prospects and ways
globalization links the fates of industrial and developing
countries. The report then considers issues in four broad
areas that are particularly important to developing
countries: merchandise trade, services, transport, and
intellectual property rights. A final chapter summarizes the
forward-looking policy agenda, and assesses the potential
impact of further global integration and more rapid growth
for the standards of living in poor countries everywhere.
