Differences in their effects reflect differences in the countries themselves along with accidental factors of timing and external events, like the current crisis. Trade liberalization and openness to trade are usually viewed as key elements of successful growth, development strategies and perhaps a pattern to recovery from the crisis. However, trade policy may induce countervailing forces on income distribution, poverty alleviation, and human development. It seems to be the case for Latin America, the use of the word openness conceals a wish, if not an obligation, for the countries concerned to follow a freer trade policy looking for a sustainable recovery but the impacts on income and poverty are fundamentally different and a major concern.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="es"><p><![CDATA[Resumen Los programas de liberalización económica tienen muchas características comunes en todo el mundo, pero no necesariamente tienen las mismas consecuencias. Las diferencias en sus efectos reflejan las diferencias en los propios países, junto con factores accidentales de tiempo y acontecimientos externos, como la crisis actual. La liberalización y apertura comercial son generalmente vistos como elementos clave de un crecimiento exitoso, de estrategias de desarrollo y tal vez un patrón de recuperación de la crisis. Sin embargo, la política comercial puede inducir un contrapeso en la distribución del ingreso, la reducción de la pobreza y el desarrollo humano. Este parece ser el caso de América Latina, el uso de la palabra apertura esconde un deseo, sino una obligación, para los países preocupados por seguir una política comercial más libre en busca de una recuperación sostenible, pero los impactos sobre el ingreso y la pobreza son fundamentalmente diferentes y una de las principales preocupaciones.]]></p></abstract>
