From the vantage of Latin America, the results of decades of globalisation on the economic development of the region's countries are studied. We see that in recent years, there has been a marked increase in financial and goods mobility. Most countries now allow and often indeed encourage foreign direct investment. The more the better is a common view of governments. Which differs markedly from some earlier policies that sought to isolate a nation's currency dealings.
The increased goods mobility is also another aspect. Often involving the export of commodities to developed nations.
In marked distinction is the still limited labour mobility. The developed nations have proved far more reluctant in the granting of temporary migrations from Latin America.
The role of the WTO in supporting and expanding globalisation is given. Often, this involves pushing for the reduction of tariff barriers. But also for the equal treatment of imports where these are goods also made by domestic companies.
