| description |
The book builds on previous research,
including that by the World Bank, on trade in services. Such
research includes analyses of the effect of liberalizing
services in developing countries and sectoral studies on
financial, transportation, telecommunication, and
professional services, as well as on international
negotiations. The conceptual framework for this book is
based on the existing literature on the service sector
(Francois and Hoekman 2010; Hoekman and Mattoo 2008).
Recognizing the heterogeneity in both, economic structure of
developing countries and their service exports, this book
takes an eclectic approach to identifying successful
strategies. Chapter two surveys the literature on
determinants of service exports and presents an illustrative
empirical model that synthesizes the available models on
trade in services. Because trade data on services are scarce
and have a number of weaknesses, rigorous econometric
analysis has serious limits. The subsequent chapters of the
book examine the determinants of trade in services through
case studies of the experiences of countries with varying
degrees of success. The book analyzes service export
performance for the following countries: Brazil, Chile, the
Arab Republic of Egypt, India, Kenya, Malaysia, and the
Philippines. The countries were selected on the basis of
their performance in global trade (especially trade in
services), their regional role, and the availability of data
and because they have consciously pursued policies to
promote service exports. |
