According to Mamerto Pérez, Sergio Schlesinger, and Timothy A. Wise in their 2008 report, The Promise and the Perils of Agricultural Trade Liberalization:
Due to both deepening economic crises and pressure from external lenders, Costa Rica and El Salvador implemented trade and market liberalization reforms in the 1980s. This study explores whether these policy changes shifted production toward each country's presumed comparative advantage in agriculture.

Peter Mandelson, the European Union trade commissioner,said Nov. 11 that the Doha round of negotiations on trade liberalization (Dec. 13-18) in Hong Kong is likely to fail.

On the impact of the liberalization policies implemented in Pakistan, the country's economy, however, is still in the process of adjustment and therefore the full impact of the WTO implementation is yet to evolve--as the process follows policy changes in Pakistan and its economic/trading partners' policies.
