The world economy - David Greenaway

The World Economy: Global Trade Policy 2009 is the sixteenth in an annual series in which leading economists provide a concise and accessible evaluation of major developments in trade and trade policy. Each annual volume examines key issues pertinent to the multinational trading system, as well as regional trade arrangements and policy developments at the national level. Most volumes also provide assessments of the World Trade Organization’s recent Trade Policy Reviews. The 2009 issue includes a major symposium on China and Africa . In addition,a special feature by Johan F. M. Swinnen investigates the growth of agricultural protection in Europe in the 19th and 20th centuries. This book is a vital resource for researchers, analysts and policy–advisors interested in trade policy and other open economy issues.
