| dc.description.abstract | I study the group of countries who conducted the largest tariff reductions of the late 1980’s to analyse the relationship between trade reforms and different poverty reductions. I find that countries with larger reductions in poverty are associated with higher labour to land ratio, lower capital to labour ratio, negative trade balance and better legal systems. I find that W.T.O. participation is not relevant to poverty reductions. I also find that changes in exports good’s prices can affect the countries poverty. Econometric analysis although supporting the coefficients signs fails to provide significant results. | eng |
