Описание: The Middle East and North Africa is one of the least globally and regionally integrated regions in the world. Although it is home to 5.5 percent of the world's population and 3.9 percent of the world's gross domestic product, the region's share of nonoil world trade is only 1.8 percent. Today's policy makers face critical development challenges that have been brought to the forefront by the Arab Spring, which they can address by boosting growth, fostering diversification, and stimulating employment.<br><br>This book summarises the constraints to and opportunities for deepening economic integration within the region and beyond. In addition to trade and investment reform, the book discusses other dimensions of economic integration including physical connectivity, cross-border trade facilitation, infrastructure networks, and the vital role of logistics services. It notes that building strategic infrastructure networks while opening infrastructure services to competition and trade could help reduce production costs, increase foreign direct investment, promote knowledge spillovers, and expand markets. And logistics performance, which varies substantially across the region, can be improved through more efficient border crossing facilities and better monitoring and harmonising of customs performance. Finally, citing the large number of preferential trade agreements in place, <em>Regional Economic Integration in the Middle East and North Africa: Beyond Trade Reform</em> stresses that these agreements can serve as a stepping-stone to global market integration.

Описание: Recent analytical work trying to explain weak job creation and insufficient private sector dynamism in the Middle east and North Africa region point to formal and informal barriers to entry and competition. These barriers privilege a few -often unproductive- incumbents who enjoy a competition-edge due to their connections or ability to influence policy making and implementation. This report proposes to fill this policy and operational gap by answering the following question: What good governance features should be instilled in the design of economic policies and institutions to help shield them from capture, discretion and arbitrary implementation? More specifically, this report aims to move the debate and the rhetoric on privilege, capture and cronyism towards a more tractable and operational framework by: i) focusing on the systematic measurement of the various dimensions of policymaking that could lead to discretionary and unfair behavior; and ii) offering a menu of policy entry-points for policy makers to start addressing these issues and limit opportunities for capture, discretion and arbitrariness.
