In both countries, the reforms included the introduction of new mechanisms for managing trade policy as well as the reduction of restrictions. Throughout the decade beginning in 2000, Peru’s liberalization expanded. The new institutions became more robust, and through them pressures for protection were effectively contained. At the same time, Argentine trade policy returned to the high-protection import substitution regime in place before the 1990s reforms. Multiple restrictions have been imposed, mostly through a reversion to informal methods that abjure the governance characteristics that the 1990s reforms introduced.The difference between the two cases cannot be explained by economic parameters such as resource endowments or external shocks. Peru’s reforms manifest the buoyant and confident attitude toward the global economy that reform leaders were able to introduce into Peruvian politics. In the words of former president Alan García, there is an eagerness to "climb up on the wave of growth." In comparison, Argentina’s current development strategy sees international trade as detrimental to Argentina’s interests unless participation by Argentine buyers and sellers is guided by government intervention.The Peruvian case provides examples of successfully managing the politics of reform and the technical aspects of policy so as to establish transparent and participatory processes that weigh accurately the impact of trade policy on all affected domestic parties. The Argentine case demonstrates that the World Trade Organization legal system is not an effective restraint on a government that wants to revert to an import substitutionregime. International cooperation has been useful when it has recognized and influenced domestic sovereignty over economic regulation; however, it is not been useful when approached as a matter of international regulation of national actions.World Bank e-Library.ArgentinaCommercial policyArgentinaCommercePeruCommercial policyPeruCommerce382/.30982Baracat Elias1556744Baracat Elías1556744World Bank.DLCDLCBOOK9910958443003321Sustaining trade reform4360289UNINA01810oam 2200529zu 450 991102024140332120210807004254.01-118-55801-41-118-58683-2(CKB)3360000000455822(SSID)ssj0000884288(PQKBManifestationID)12439979(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000884288(PQKBWorkID)10924361(PQKB)10291883(NjHacI)993360000000455822(EXLCZ)99336000000045582220160829d2010 uy engur|||||||||||txtccrNew approaches in thematic cartography[Place of publication not identified]Wiley ISTE Imprint20101 online resource (viii, 291 pages)Thematic cartography ;v. 3Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph1-84821-112-0 Includes bibliographical references (pages 221-282) and index.Technological Revolutions and Their Conceptual and Practical Consequences -- Towards a Spatio-Temporal Representation of Cartographic Objects -- Thematic Cartography within the Framework of New Paradigms.Thematic cartography ;v. 3.CartographyData processingDigital mappingMultimedia cartographyCartographyData processing.Digital mapping.Multimedia cartography.526.0285Cauvin Colette1634577Escobar FranciscoSerradj AzizPQKBBOOK9911020241403321New approaches in thematic cartography4422460UNINA
