Employment, Welfare and Distributional Effects of a Unilateral Change in Sugar Trade Policy

Author

Listed:
  • Weidman, James M.

Abstract

Efficiency and distributional impacts of the removal of sugar trade protection in presence of factor price rigidities and factor immobilities are analyzed. Protection removal should be considered, but in the absence of full knowledge of society's system of ethical beliefs and the present concern with "Fair Trade", a definitive conclusion is not possible.
