With camouflaging, t e market price is below the price when all sales are legal, so smuggling improves wel if the price effect outweighs excess smuggling cost. This welfare effect is dir...
SMUGGLING is pervasive in Africa. Perhaps the most pronounced version of this is the development of ‘entrepôt states’ in West Africa, notably Benin, Togo and The Gambia (Igué and Soulé, 1992), whose economic development strategies have been largely based on enhancing their attractiveness as trading hubs. These countries serve as conduits for both legal transit to landlocked countries in West Af...
