Współczesny handel międzynarodowy rozwija się szybciej aniżeli produkcja światowa, wywierając wpływ na rozwój gospodarczy krajów. Korzyści wynikające z udziału w międzynarodowym podziale pracy są jednak istotnie większe w krajach rozwiniętych aniżeli krajach rozwijających się. Kraje mniej zaawansowane ekonomicznie, które specjalizują się w produkcji i eksporcie surowców, są narażone na szczególnie wysoką niestabilność dochodów eksportowych oraz niekorzystnie kształtujące się w długim okresie terms of trade. Tym samym handel zagraniczny tych krajów w warunkach petryfikacji ich struktury gospodarczej nie może podobnie pozytywnie jak w krajach rozwiniętych wpływać na ich rozwój gospodarczy. Autor przedstawia w artykule rozważania w postaci ogólnych refleksji odnoszących się do roli liberalizacji handlu przeprowadzanej w krajach rozwijających się w ramach ich strategii rozwojowej. Formułowane w artykule wnioski wskazują na konieczność odejścia od jednolitych i uniwersalnych zasad polityki rozwojowej dla całej grupy tych krajów oraz uwzględnienia ich indywidualnych etapów rozwoju i specyfiki sytuacji gospodarczej, a także na potrzebę zaakceptowania adekwatności dynamicznego ujęcia zasad przewagi komparatywnej w kształtowaniu ich perspektywicznej struktury gospodarczej.

Modern international trade is developing faster than global production, which affects the economic development of countries. The benefits of participation in the international division of labour, however, are significantly higher in developed countries than in developing countries. Less economically advanced countries which specialise in the production and export of raw materials are subjected to particularly high volatility in export earnings as well as adverse terms of trade over the long term. Thus, the foreign trade of those countries, given the petrification of their economic structure, cannot exert such a favourable influence on their economic development as it does in the case of developed economies. In this article the author considers in general terms the role of trade liberalisation which is being implemented in developing countries as part of their development strategy. The conclusions formulated in this paper indicate the necessity of moving away from the uniform and universal principles of a development policy designed for a whole group of these countries and instead taking into account their individual stages of development and their specific economic situation. The findings also point to the need for accepting the adequacy of the principles of dynamic comparative advantage in shaping the outlook of their economic structures.
