多年来,国际社会一直试图改善巴勒斯坦领土与其贸易伙伴之间的贸易。这些努力背后的论点是,贸易将刺激经济增长,随之而来的繁荣有望成为任何和平努力的更肥沃的土壤。它还被认为是一种善的力量,因为它将提高巴勒斯坦经济经营者的生活质量。因此,在各捐助者的赞助下进行了许多研究,以查明巴勒斯坦商人面临的障碍以及巴勒斯坦贸易制度的困境和可能性。这篇综述文章的第一个目的是传播这些研究的主要结果。第二个目标是探索另外三个尚未得到充分研究的途径,以改善巴勒斯坦的贸易流动:(1)开放加沙和埃及之间的拉法过境点供出口;(2)采用原产地对角线累计法;(3)改善服务贸易。
For many years, the international community has attempted to improve trade between the Palestinian Territories and its trading partners. The argument behind these efforts is that trade will spur economic growth and that the ensuing prosperity is expected to prove more fertile ground for any peace endeavours. It is also considered to be a force of good because it would raise the quality of life of Palestinian economic operators. As a result, numerous studies, sponsored by various donors, have been carried out to map the obstacles for the Palestinian businessman and the predicament and possibilities of the Palestinian trade regime. The first purpose of this overview article is to disseminate the main results of these studies. A second objective is to explore three additional yet understudied avenues for improving Palestinian trade flows: (1) opening the Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt for exports; (2) introducing diagonal cumulation of origin; and (3) improving trade in services.
