Overview

This study uses Alan Winters' framework of studying trade liberalization as a major potential contributor to economic growth and development to investigate the effects of trade liberalisation on economic growth and poverty in Vietnam. With a focus on the microeconomic (household) level, it aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of all four channels of the trade poverty nexus.
