Summary
"This volume of five studies by Commonwealth experts, gives an economic analysis of rules of origin relating to Africa under various existing preferential arrangements. It provides trade policy practitioners with an indication of how rules of origin have dramatically affected the emerging trade in textiles and clothing in Southern Africa." "These studies conclude that while rules of origin, as trade policy instruments will become less significant in coming years with the reduction of MFN tariffs, they will continue to play an important role in determining the patterns of international trade in the foreseeable future."--BOOK JACKET.
