Effects of globalisation
This policy was brought in opening up the economy. Trade liberalisation means opening up markets by bringing down trade barriers such as tariffs. Doing this allows goods and services from everywhere to compete with domestic products and services.
But in practice the set-up of global trade rules and the way these are administered by the World Trade Organisation, work best for those countries who are already rich, and increases the gap between them and poorer countries who are already struggling to compete.
It is first essential to understand why so many countries, in so many different parts of the world, with such different economic systems, at such different stages of development, have all headed in the same direction.
