FTA and exports: the bet for trade stability
Equidad y Desarrollo

Abstract

This article studies the characteristics of the foreign trade structure in the last two decades, by presenting the relevance of the non-traditional exports. It begins with the theoretical support of the international trade. Then, it presents how the Free Trade Agreement(FTA), becomes the option to permanently return to the unilateral preferences of the U.S.A., where the sectors already benefited by the Andean Trade Promotion and Drug Eradication Act (ATPDEA) are going to keep their privileges, in front of other sensiblesectors like those intensive in capital and agriculture left behind. Finally, it insists on the necessityof an industrial development model in agreement with the structural conditions of the territories in the country.
