Nous utilisons les titres fonciers formels comme indicateur des droits fonciers de jure, et les droits de transfert perçus sur les parcelles comme indicateur des droits fonciers de facto.

Trade liberalisation processes impact differently on men and women due to the fact that men and women have different roles in production. Despite the fact that women are actively involved in international trade, WTO agreements are gender blind and as such have adverse impacts on women. The General Agreement in Trade and Service (GATS), for instance, provides for a level playing field in service provision between big foreign owned companies and small locally owned companies.
