Implementation of Uruguay Round Commitments


Book Description

At the Uruguay Round, developing countries took on obligations not only to reduce trade barriers but also to undertake significant reforms of regulations and trade procedures. The Round did not, however, take into account the cost of implementing these reforms -- a full year's development budget for many of the least developed countries -- nor did it ask whether the money might be more productive in other development uses.
