From the reviews: This book concentrates on the first of these objectives by looking at the trade effects of the European Union s GSP as well as other regimes of EU trade preferences for LDCs. the volume might deserve a place in reading lists for courses in applied trade policy, particularly since Springer offers data and STATA code used in the applications as extra online material. (Wilhelm Kohler, Journal of Economics and Statistics, Vol. 232 (6), November, 2012) This book brings together work from numerous authors covering European Union (EU) trade policies towards developing countries and the empirical study of their effect on trade flows. The path chosen can speak to several kinds of readers, interested in the policies themselves and empirical results of their effects, or looking for guidance in econometric gravity model applications. a welcome addition for some readers who wish to investigate the data further, and can be a good primer for future research.
