Item Compromisos en la organización mundial de comercio sobre promoción de exportaciones(FLACSO, 1998) Latin American Trade Network; Tussie, D.; Lengyel, M.F.Item WTO commitments on export promotion(Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales (FLACSO), Buenos Aires, AR, 1998) Tussie, Diana; Lengyel, MiguelThe purpose of this study is to review the main commitments undertaken in the framework of the World Trade Organization (WTO) on the issue of subsidies and the policy implications of such agreement. The freedom of action that is left to developing countries to promote exports is also examined. The conclusion reached is that, while the use of old style subsidies is restricted, there is still manoeuvring room to apply them creatively as well as to think forward to devise alternative policy initiatives. These policy options are thus discussed and some basic criteria for their formulation and implementation are suggested. Finally, it is argued that there are more benefits than costs in the new commitments insofar as subsidies are less useful in today's trading environment. New policy options will entail considerable social and institutional "re-engineering".Item Argentina y la Organización Mundial de Comercio(FLACSO, 1999) Latin American Trade Network; Casaburi, G.; Díaz Henderson, M.; Quiliconi, C.; Tussie, D.Item Brasil : cambios domésticos y la agenda comercial(FLACSO, 1999) Latin American Trade Network; Da Motta Veiga, P.Item Medio ambiente en los acuerdos regionales : ¿ precedentes o hechos aislados ?(LATN, Buenos Aires, AR, 1999) Schatan, ClaudiaItem Política de competencia en el marco de los acuerdos regionales(FLACSO, 1999) Latin American Trade Network; Tavares de Araujo, J.Item Environment in regional agreements : precedents or isolated events ?(Latin American Trade Network (LATN), Buenos Aires, AR, 1999) Schatan, ClaudiaItem Promoción de exportaciones y disciplinas multilaterales : posibilidades e interrogantes(Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales, Buenos Aires, AR, 1999) Latin American Trade Network; Lengyel, M.; Tussie, D.Item Egypt leading the way : institution building and stability in the financial system(Euromoney Books, London, GB, 1999) Huband, M.Item Próximas negociaciones agrícolas en la OMC : la perspectiva de los países exportadores agrícolas latinoamericanos(FLACSO, 1999) Latin American Trade Network; Díaz Henderson, M.Item Brasil : el reciente ciclo de inversiones y las políticas de atracción(FLACSO, 1999) Latin American Trade Network; Da Motta Veiga, P.Item Telecomunicaciones en América Latina : avances e interferencias(FLACSO, 2000) Latin American Trade Network; Bastos Tigre, P.Item Aligning innovation for dynamic capabilities and sustainable growth in South African manufacturing(TIPS, Johannesburg, ZA, 2000) Wood, EricThe paper argues that manufacturing companies competing successfully in international markets hold promise for employment growth for many in the South African labour force, especially those without tertiary education.
