Description
Trade in services is of particular significance to India which has penetrated the global markets more rapidly for services than for goods. With a unique combination of theory and empirical analysis, this book provides a comprehensive picture of the factors responsible for such a rapid rise in this trade, its composition, and its sectoral strengths and weaknesses. Analysing the peculiarities of trade in the services sector, especially its invisibility, this book is perhaps the first of its kind to use advanced econometric techniques to understand the barriers specific to education, health, and transportation services. The book also traces the empirical relationship between services trade, poverty, and inequality in India. Highlighting the implications of rising services trade for pro-poor growth, it delineates why the removal of barriers to trade in services may be welfare enhancing
