    TRADE, INVESTMENT AND COMPETITIVENESS Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized TRADE, INVESTMENT AND COMPETITIVENESS EQUITABLE GROWTH, FINANCE & INSTITUTIONS INSIGHT Public Disclosure Authorized Th Eff cts of Comptition on Jobs nd Economic Trnsformtion Public Disclosure Authorized Seidu Dauda This note was prepared by Seidu Dauda (Economist). The author is grateful to Jose Signoret (Senior Economist), Mariana Iooty (Senior Economist), and Yue Li (Senior Economist) for valuable comments and insights and to Georgiana Pop (Competition Policy Global Lead) and Christine Qiang (Practice Manager) for overall advice. ABSTRACT Fostering sustainable productivity growth to achieve economic transformation that creates better earning opportunities for more people—the jobs and economic transformation (JET) agenda—is a key priority for the World Bank Group and its client countries. Several types of policies are critical to achieving JET, including competition- enhancing policies. This paper reviews the literature to document the channels through which competition impact key dimensions of productivity and jobs, the main outcomes measured under the JET agenda. The evidence suggests that competition foster productivity gains and job creation. Competition induces firms to be more productive and innovative, fosters a better allocation of resources across economic activities, and forces less-efficient firms to exit the market while inducing more-efficient firms to enter and gain more market share. Not only can competition directly create better and inclusive jobs for more people, but also, in the medium to long term, it can indirectly create more and better jobs when the cost savings from productivity gains are either passed on to consumers in the form of lower prices or invested by firms in business expansion activities that create higher demand for goods and services.

  • Trade and Employment Challenges for Policy Research
    ILO - WTO - ILO TRADE AND EMPLOYMENT CHALLENGES FOR POLICY RESEARCH This study is the outcome of collaborative research between the Secretariat of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the TRADE AND EMPLOYMENT International Labour Office (ILO). It addresses an issue that is of concern to both organizations: the relationship between trade and employment. On the basis of an overview of the existing academic CHALLENGES FOR POLICY RESEARCH literature, the study provides an impartial view of what can be said, and with what degree of confidence, on the relationship between trade and employment, an often contentious issue of public debate. Its focus is on the connections between trade policies, and labour and social policies and it will be useful for all those who are interested in this debate: academics and policy-makers, workers and employers, trade and labour specialists.

  • 10 Benefits of the WTO Trading System
    10 benefits of the WTO trading system The world is complex.This booklet highlights some of the benefits of the WTO’s “multilateral” trading system, but it doesn’t claim that everything is perfect—otherwise there would be no need for further negotiations and for the rules to be revised. Nor does it claim that everyone agrees with everything in the WTO. That’s one of the most important reasons for having the system: it’s a forum for countries to thrash out their differences on trade issues. That said,there are many over-riding reasons why we’re better off with the system than we would be without it. Here are 10 of them. The 10 benefits 1. The system helps promote peace 2. Disputes are handled constructively 3. Rules make life easier for all 4. Freer trade cuts the costs of living 5. It provides more choice of products and qualities 6. Trade raises incomes 7. Trade stimulates economic growth 8. The basic principles make life more efficient 9. Governments are shielded from lobbying 10. The system encourages good government 1 1. This sounds like an exaggerated claim, and it would be wrong to make too much of it. Nevertheless, the system does contribute to international peace, and if we understand why, we have a clearer picture of what the system actually does. Peace is partly an outcome of two of expanded—one has become the slide into serious economic trouble for the most fundamental principles of European Union, the other the World all—including the sectors that were the trading system: helping trade to Trade Organization (WTO).

(Econ.), [email protected] GOVERNANCE OF ECONOMIC TRANSITION We live in an era of turmoil and profound change in the energetic and material underpinnings of economies. The era of cheap energy is coming to an end (Murphy 2014, Lambert et al. 2014, Hall et al. 2014, Hall et al. 2009, Hirsch et al. 2005). Because economies are for the first time in human history shifting to energy sources that are less energy efficient, production of usable energy (exergy) will require more, not less, effort on the part of societies to power both basic and non-basic human activities. Sink costs are also rising; economies have used up the capacity of planetary ecosystems to handle the waste generated by energy and material use. Climate change is the most pronounced sink cost. What will happen during the oncoming years and decades when we enter the era of energy transition, combined with emission cuts, and start to witness more severe effects of climate change? That is the big question.

  • Making Industrial Policy Work for Growth, Jobs and Development
    Salazar- Xirinachs Nübler Kozul- José M. Salazar-Xirinachs Wright Irmgard Nübler Richard Kozul-Wright No country has made the arduous journey from widespread rural poverty to post-industrial wealth without employing targeted and selective government policies to modify its economic structure and boost its economic dynamism. TRANSFORMING Building on a description and assessment of the contributions of different economic traditions (neoclassical, structural, institutional and evolutionary economics) to the analysis of policies in support of structural transformation and the generation of productive jobs, this book argues that industrial policy ECONOMIES goes beyond targeting preferred economic activities, sectors and technolo- gies. It also includes the challenge of accelerating learning and the creation of productive capabilities. This perspective encourages a broad and integrated Making industrial policy work approach to industrial policy. Only a coherent set of investment, trade, tech- nology, education and training policies supported by macroeconomic, financial for growth, jobs and development and labour market policies can adequately respond to the myriad challenges of learning and structural transformation faced by countries aiming at achieving development objectives. The book contains analyses of national and sectoral experiences in Costa Rica, the Republic of Korea, India, Brazil, China, South Africa, sub-Saharan Africa and the United States.
