Intellectual debates on international trade and its resultant gains on development have been moving fast along with the pace of global integration. As it exposes the economy towards various odd impediments to the external, the current of anti-globalisation move are also thriving fast across the world, especially among the practitioners. This part, anecdotal evidences suggest that gains from trade and distribution of such gains among various sections, regions, population and segments have not been uniform across countries in reality. The impact on inequality, informal sector, employment and factor share are far more ambiguous.
