| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this paper is to discuss and analyze the impact of Preferential Trade Agreements (PTA) on Ethiopia's export performance. A gravity trade model is employed by using panel data for 31 main trading partners of Ethiopia covering the period 2000-2010. The estimation result suggests that the export of the country is highly dependent on non-reciprocal preferential market access provisions granted by developed countries which could result in preference erosion when trade is further liberalized. The paper also assesses other determinants of the export sector. GDP and population of Ethiopia are positively related to the counties export while the populations of importing nations and COMESA dummy have negative impact on the export | en_US |
