Abstract (EN)
Liberal theory contends that trade is an engine of growth and free trade agreements are the catalyst towards achieving that growth. The EPA negotiated between West Africa and the EU proposes free-trade agreements. But, are this EPA really benefit for West Africa? This policy brief seeks to answer this question. Our empirical estimation indicates clearly that opening African markets for European products will have disastrous impact to the small economies in West Africa, especially when there is no accompanying programs.
