El tratamiento de las rentas mínimas en la Unión Europea

Abstract

This article analyses the Generalised System of Preferences (GSP) through which the European Union provides preferential access to the EU market to developing countries, consisting of a reduction, or even elimination, of the tariff rates applied to products originating in such countries. As a trade instrument by which the European Union grants a privileged tariff treatment to the developing countries, the GSP constitutes a good example of the different dimensions, not exclusively commercial, that locks up the model of trade policy of the European Union.
