In time for the start of today's WTO meetings in Hong Kong, id21 has pulled together a research special on harnessing trade for development. See the full PDF version or a sampling of relevant highlights:
- Benefits from market access, Bernard Hoekman, WB
- Market access or subsidies?, Marcelo Olarreaga, WB
- The need for complimentary reforms, Irene Brambilla, Yale
- Aid for Trade, Susan Prowse, DFID
Also, several new trade blogs have recently sprung up: Hong Kong Blog and Freedom to Trade. Our trade-related posts are here.
Update: Ben Muse has a more complete rundown of who will be blogging about Hong Kong, including Peter Gallagher and Daniel Drezner. Stiglitz and Charlton are also promoting their new book “Fair Trade For All: How Trade Can Promote Development” everywhere, see the FT and Telegraph. And this is the latest from the World Bank.
