تطور التجارة الخارجية في بلدان منظمة التعاون الإسلامي : الحافز للتكامل الإقتصادي

Abstract EN

The research starts from framing its problem that states that developed and economically rising countries، and rich in natural and human economic resources، are associated to the economic bloc to secure their interests and defend their existence; it is supposed that Islamic countries would rather seek to be organized under some form of economic integration.

Based on what has just been presented، the research aims that the member countries of the OIC would make their diversity a unity، and strength from their distribution in the four continents، and from the accumulation of their economic potential (natural and human)، a huge economic bloc that stands as an equivalent competitor versus other economic blocs to defend their economic interests and secure the welfare of their people.

The approach to trade integration targets the entire economy، which takes into account the more leading goal of developing foreign trade among the member countries of the OIC، as trade integration reflects the state of comprehensive economic integration، in addition to that sectorial integration within the framework of joint ventures would support trade integration; It enhances intra-trade opportunities، and contributes to the commodity concentration of each country according to the comparative advantages it enjoys، taking advantage of untapped potentials، building more diversified economies، achieving economic benefits، and warding off potential economic risks to member countries.

This requires public policy-makers in the OIC countries to develop maritime، land، air، rail، and communication lines، as they are among the most important determinants of economic integration.
