Developing country proposals for the liberalization of movements of natural service suppliers Forced Migration Online (24276783) Migration, asylum and refugee law FORCED MIGRATION ONLINE INTERNATIONAL TRADE MARKETS ILO HUMAN RESOURCES LABOUR ECONOMICS This paper is about developing countries' proposals in the GATS negotiations on the liberalisation of the movement of natural persons to provide services -- Mode 4. Trade negotiations in the Doha Round is as mercantilist as ever, and so typically 'proposals for liberalisation' are proposals that other countries should liberalise their imports while the proposing country does next to nothing. As well as being bad economics, this also makes it difficult to sort out, from initial public positions, exactly what the parties want, or even expect, to emerge; i.e., what is actually and realistically proposed and what is just rhetoric. 2026-09-30T11:48:23Z Text Online resource 10.25446/oxford.33354099.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/online_resource/Developing_country_proposals_for_the_liberalization_of_movements_of_natural_service_suppliers/33354099 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
