摘要:Despite reforms undertaken since the beginning of the 90's, India remains one the most closed of Asian countries and characterised by a shallow integration in the world economy. This can be attributed to several factors. The belated opening up policy explains partially why India's foreign trade lags behind. Up to now, barriers to trade have remained high and structural factors have dampened the rise of competitive industries and the attractiveness of India for FDI. Moreover, India's narrow manufacturing industry, as well as its geographic location which holds it apart from dynamic regional integration processes, have not help its specialisation. Exports are still highly dominated by labour intensive products characterised by a slow growing international demand and protected markets. Nevertheless, the development of new sectors, with high human capital intensity, is less restrained by domestic constraints and allows India to make a breakthrough on dynamic niches.
