The case of LLDCs has naturally received special attention for decades, including a specific set of development priorities based on the idea of dependence over the transit state. In this context, efforts to tackle the cost of being landlocked have been mainly directed to ensure or facilitate freedom of transit through regional/multilateral conventions, and to develop regional transport infrastructure. In contrast, analysis of service delivery constraints has bDirections in development (Washington, D.C.)Directions in development (Washington, D.C.).Trade.World Bank e-Library.Business logisticsLandlocked statesTransportationLandlocked statesCostsBusiness logisticsTransportationCosts.658.7Arvis Jean-Francois1960-1136353Raballand Gaël604724Marteau Jean-François1495220DLCDLCCDXYDXCPIULC#PBWXDLCBOOK9910791477703321The cost of being landlocked3719245UNINA
