Contemporary Issues in International Trade cover

From the 2008 global financial crisis and the Covid-19 pandemic, to Brexit and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, the past two decades have been a turbulent period for the global economy.
Recognising that we are currently at a tipping point, Contemporary Issues in International Trade: Challenges and Opportunities provides a comprehensive overview of the changes in trade and capital flows currently in play across the globe. Topics of discussion include:

  • Vertical specialization
  • Impact of crises on trade
  • Macroeconomic vulnerability in developing countries
  • India’s automotive and technological exports
  • The influence of liberalization on India’s manufacturing sector
  • International insurance markets
  • Protectionism
  • Labour market impact of trade reforms
  • Blockchain technology
  • The influence of ‘fake news’ on trading preferences
  • Challenges in the globalisation of agriculture
  • Correlations between trade and human development

Reaching beyond the usual terrain of economic engagement, this edited collection confronts critical issues to demand urgent analytical attention and a harnessing of the economic potential at stake.
