Description: | Select Guide Rating This volume provides insights and detailed analyses on Africa's potential for greater participation in world trade and economic growth from a variety of experts and contributors. It will be of interest to economics and trade policy-makers, academics and practitioners, as well as those interested in the World Trade Organization. Twenty-first century Africa is in a process of economic transformation, but challenges remain in areas such as structural reform, governance, commodity pricing and geopolitics. This book looks into key questions facing the continent, such as how Africa can achieve deeper integration into the rules-based multilateral trading system and the global economy. It provides a range of perspectives on the future of the multilateral trading system and Africa''s participation in global trade and underlines the supportive roles that can be played by multilateral and regional institutions during such a rapid and uncertain transition. This volume is based on contributions to the Fourth China Round Table on WTO Accessions and the Multilateral Trading System, which took place just before the World Trade Organization''s Tenth Ministerial Conference in Nairobi in December 2015. |
