abstract: 'This paper compiles a systematic review of research papers that identify
the effect of international trade and trade liberalization policies on
socio-economic targets linked to the sustainable development goals
(SDGs). A comprehensive overview of the existing literature is provided,
focusing on papers that identify causality and cov-ering topics that
have not been systematically analyzed previously. While existing
literature reviews have fo-cused on the effects of trade openness on
economic growth, its consequences for other social-and sustainable
-related goals have received much less attention. We restrict the review
to social-and sustainability-related SDGs and classify the empirical
findings in four categories. First, we analyze the extent to which trade
affects pov-erty (SDGs-1, 2, 8). The findings indicate that trade
increases average incomes in most cases and that trade re-forms that
include the agricultural sector generally reduce poverty. Second, we
examine labor market outcomes and analyze how international trade
affects wages, unemployment, and informality (SDGs-1, 5, 8). We find
that with more trade, employment and wages increase in the most dynamic
sectors, but decrease in others with increases in informality in some
developing countries. The third bloc documents papers that evaluate
whether trade is good or bad for environmental quality, evaluating how
trade reforms and increases in openness affect the environment at the
macro and micro level (SDGs-3, 7, 11, 12, 15). The reviewed research
indicates that the effects of trade on environmental quality are complex
and depend on the sectors that liberalize and the ex-istence of
environmental standards linked to trade agreements. The fourth category
concerns the effect of trade flows on food security, hence questioning
whether opening the economies could contribute to better per-formance in
SDG-2 and SDG-9. In this area, the literature is still incipient and
deals mainly with correlations. More research is needed to better define
the concept of food security and related indicators and to collect
better data. In summary, this systematic review should guide
policymakers in developing countries in the decision-making pro-cess
related to trade and industrial policies. The main recommendation is to
consider the main findings when de-signing new trade policy strategies
concerning both unilateral trade liberalization and free trade
agreements negotiations.(c) 2022 Institution of Chemical Engineers.
