11 Foreword One of the basic problems of the international economy today is how the economies of the less developed countries (LDCs) could be further integrated into the global economic division oflabour for manufactured goods and not only, as now, for raw materials. It is well known that severe obstacles and problems connected with such an integration exist both within these countries themselves and on the international markets. In fact, the most important contribution that the developed countries could make towards the less developed countries is precisely to provide access to markets for manufactured goods. Alexander Yeats presents in this book a penetrating study of the obstacles on the international markets to an integration of this kind. The study covers not only tariff and nontariff barriers erected by the industrial countries, but also institutional arrangements iri international shipping. The most distinguished characteristic of this important book is the relentless attempts to estimate the quantitative size and spread of these various obstacles, as a basis for an evaluation of the economic benefits to the LDCs from their removal. This makes Alexander Yeats's work an important contribution to the international discussion of the potential consequences of changes in the world economic order-a discussion that no doubt has demonstrated the need for this type of empirical research. The book is the first report from an ongoing research project on the New World Economic Order by researchers at the Institute for International Economic Studies of the University of Stockholm, financed by the Bank of Sweden's Tercentenary Foundation. We are proud that the publication of our studies can start with such an excellent piece of work. Stockholm May 1978 Assar Lindbeck xiii
12 Acknowledgements This book, which constitutes the first of a two-part survey of developing country trade problems, was written during my stay as Visiting Scholar at the Institute for International Economic Studies at the University of Stockholm during the academic year 1977/78. Financial support for this endeavour was provided by the Bank of Sweden's Tercentenary Foundation as part of a comprehensive project on the New World Economic Order. In the course of my work I have been able to draw on the advice of several individuals at the Institute and the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development. Professor Odd Gulbrandsen read earlier versions of most chapters and was an invaluable source of criticism and constructive comments. I have also drawn from several previous studies written with Professor Gary Sampson, as well as Dr Andrzej Olechowski's expertise on empirical analysis of trade barriers. Several individuals at UNCT AD including Ho Dac Tuong, Jack I. Stone, Alfred Maizels, Craig MacPhee and Robert Ramsey, commented on specific aspects, as did Marian Radetzki, Carl Hamilton, Sven Grassman, Arne Jon Isachsen and several other colleagues at the Institute. Special thanks are also due to members of the secretarial staff at the Institute who prepared the manuscript. The author would like to express appreciation to the editors of the Journal ofbusiness and Economics, Quarterly Review of Economics and Business, Journal of Development Studies, Journal of Political Economy, American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Oxford Economic Papers and Weltwirtschaftliches Archiv for permission to use parts of the author's previously published studies.
