<i>'It is a pleasure to read this well-written and topical book of essays on the EU's trade and aid relationships with the developing world by a group of authors mostly associated with Lund University in Sweden. . . I can highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the analysis of EU trade and development policies.'</i>
- Alan Matthews, European Review of Agricultural Economics,
The evaluation takes into account current changes in EU trade and aid policy and makes use of recent advances in empirical methods in order to provide accurate estimates of the policy impact on developing countries. The various studies may contribute to improve the design and implementation of EU policy and its effectiveness in strengthening growth of developing countries and promoting the well-being of their populations.
This independent evaluation of EU trade and development policy towards developing countries will strongly appeal to: undergraduate and graduate students in international economics, development economics and European economics; policy makers in the EU and developing countries, development community; non governmental organizations; and those interested in the impact of the EU trade and aid policy.
