Integration of Sri Lanka into Indian supply chains under the bi / Abeyratne, Sirimal   Journal Article
Abeyratne, Sirimal Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract The purpose of this article is to examine the role of Indo-Lanka Free Trade Agreement (FTA) in integration of Sri Lanka into the Indian manufacturing processes in line with emerging trade patterns based on 'global product sharing'. While Sri Lanka has established close economic ties with India in general, the FTA (2000) has led to a 'zero'-tariff regime covering a bulk of their bilateral trade. However, there is no evidence to support the popular perceptions about the deeper integration of Sri Lanka into Indian supply chains. While the expansion of Sri Lanka's trade with India under the FTA has revealed peculiar outcomes, the 'old-style' trade integration between the two countries has remained virtually unchanged. Trade and growth patterns in both Sri Lanka and India are different from the experience of East and South-east Asian countries which created opportunities to accommodate globalized supply chains of fragmented manufacturing processes.

Trade and spatial growth : the nexus that was not missing / Abeyratne, Sirimal; Cooray, N S   Journal Article
Abeyratne, Sirimal Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Comparative advantage is based on ‘locational factors’ so that trade leads to growth and its spatial concentration. Until recently, the nexus between trade and spatial growth received little space within trade analyses though it did not appear to be a missing link in initial contributions to trade theory. The reshaping of the global economy with greater integration has called for analyses of trade and spatial growth. This article examines theoretical premises of the link between international trade and spatial growth, and the implications of reshaping of the global economy for the study of spatial growth within trade theory.
