Industrialization, economic cooperation and transport hypothesis of work in the region of the Great African Lakes

Abstract

The Geneva Conference on Trade and Development, in analyzing the imbalance of world trade between developed countries and proletarian nations, concluded that the permanent trend is for such imbalance to increase. On the one hand, the developing countries, whose exports consist mainly of raw materials, find that the value of these products is steadily decreasing because of competition between themselves, and also because of technical progress, which has ushered in synthetic products which can replace natural raw materials at a lower price.
