Blyde Economía y Finanzas Latin America Transportation Trade barriers International trade Freight and freightage This article summarizes a report prepared by the Inter-American Development Bank the impact of transport costs on Latin American and Caribbean trade. Based on a robust technical analysis (using large and detailed databases) and a series of case studies, it gives a comprehensive view of the significance of transport costs as a barrier to trade in the region. It calls for a broader and more balanced integration agenda, which would focus not only on the traditional barriers to trade, but also on costs, such as those associated with transport-related infrastructure. 2008 artículo científico 1988-7116 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=511851319008 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5118 Journal of Globalization, Competitiveness & Governability / Revista de Globalización, Competitividad y Gobernabilidad / Revista de Globalização, Competitividade e Governabilidade application/pdf Portal Universia S.A.
