Abstract

The international trade agreements have important impact on people living in poverty. But these impacts operate at different levels. In some cases, trade can stimulate the development of these countries, help the economic growth, help employment, give access to local population to variated goods and services, give access to other culture, In another dimension, international trade can be a destructive factor for developing countries, helping the increase of poverty and populations inequalities. Rules, political institutions can give another -human-dimension to trade. I am just wondering how this situation leads trade to impact on women workforce and the perfect contrary, how does women workforce affect global trade? The relationship between social exclusion and global production systems depend on time; how national and international policies deal with global exchanges. But also on how international workers live this globalization process, according to their environment (with a special reference to south america). We are going to discuss on how these changes affect the social inclusion or exclusion of these workers (with a special consideration here for women) who most of the time are seniors or new actors in this informal global economy.
