Thesis (Ph.D.)--Universiteit Antwerpen (Belgium), 2009.

The research presented in this thesis aims at improving the knowledge of the effects trade liberalisation has on individual and households' welfare in developing countries. Utilising diverse methods, it provides a measure of the impacts of trade opening on key variables at the household level. The consideration and quantification of consumption and supply responses to trade policies and of specific prices and wages transmission constitute the main contribution to the body of literature to date. The research presented in this thesis constitutes a new step towards identifying and quantifying some of the links through which trade policy may possibly affect welfare and poverty in the countries under study.

520 $a The research presented in this thesis aims at improving the knowledge of the effects trade liberalisation has on individual and households' welfare in developing countries. Utilising diverse methods, it provides a measure of the impacts of trade opening on key variables at the household level. The consideration and quantification of consumption and supply responses to trade policies and of specific prices and wages transmission constitute the main contribution to the body of literature to date. The research presented in this thesis constitutes a new step towards identifying and quantifying some of the links through which trade policy may possibly affect welfare and poverty in the countries under study.
520 $a Chapter 2 surveys the literature, which underlines the role of the transmission channels and of the structure of markets and economic institutions that exist between trade policy and the setting of prices, factor retributions, and strategies of the households facing the policy reforms. One of the main steps in the analysis of the trade-poverty links is the estimation of the sign and magnitude of the transmission of trade policy to the prices of goods and production factors. Since these prices are not uniformly affected, one must consider specific market, regional, institutional, and cultural characteristics. This led to a change of focus from a framework of general analysis of regions towards the study of particular cases.
520 $a Chapters 3 to 5 consist of specific country-case studies of the effects of trade liberalisation on households' welfare. Two Latin-American developing countries that recently pursued trade liberalisation were selected, Guatemala and Argentina; the first being more reliant on agricultural production and with a large percentage of the population living in rural settings; whereas the second is characterised by a large urban population, which earns their income from labour work.
520 $a The microeconomic consequences of a broad economic policy, such as a trade liberalisation policy, are often complex and difficult to measure and interpret. The research presented in this thesis reveals that there are significant links between trade policy and poverty, and that their country-specific features should be accounted for when assessing the development impacts of any trade reform.
