The WTO Agreements are rewriting the rules of economic intercourse between countries and forging a multilateral framework for world trade. This text presents the provisions in non-technical language, seeking not to detract from their legal precision. It explains technical terms, gives examples where appropriate and links widely-scattered provisions in the Agreements where they are connected in their operation. The guide seeks to be useful to both those who are not yet acquainted with the subject and to those still needing clarification of certain concepts, ideas and general provisions. It aims to foster an understanding of WTO Agreements, to help countries to know their rights and obligations, and industry and trade bodies to know the parameters within which they now operate.

An examination of China’s participation in the World Trade Organization, the conflicts it has caused, and how WTO reforms could ease them China’s accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001 was rightly hailed as a huge step forward in international cooperation. However, China’s participation in the WTO has been anything but smooth, with China alienating some of its trading partners, particularly the United States. The mismatch between the WTO framework and China’s economic model has undermined the WTO’s ability to mitigate tensions arising from China’s size and rapid growth. What has to change? China and the WTO demonstrates that unilateral pressure, by the United States and others, is not the answer. Instead, Petros Mavroidis and André Sapir show that if the WTO enacts judicious reforms, it could induce China’s cooperation, leading to a renewed confidence in the WTO system. The WTO and its predecessor, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, are predicated on liberal domestic policies. They managed the previous accessions of socialist countries and big trading nations, but none were as large or powerful as China. Mavroidis and Sapir contend that for the WTO to function smoothly and accommodate China’s unique geopolitical position, it needs to translate some of its implicit principles into explicit treaty language. To make their point, they focus on two core complaints—that Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) benefit from unfair trade advantages, and that domestic companies, private as well as SOEs, impose forced technology transfer on foreign companies as a condition for accessing the Chinese market—and they lay out specific proposals for WTO reforms. In an age of global trade disputes, China and the WTO offers a timely exploration of unprecedented challenges to the current multilateral system and fresh ideas for lasting solutions.

Essay from the year 2005 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, grade: High Distinction, University of New England (Australia), language: English, abstract: Trade is as old as mankind and with mankind it developed and kept growing into a jungle of arrangements, contracts, and trade relations summarised by the catch phrase globalisation. Everyone agrees that there have to be rules to form a common foundation for international trade around the world, so that all countries which use it as ‘an instrument for promoting development’1 will profit from its many benefits. The World Trade Organisation (WTO) is the nations’ solution to the problem of ensuring free and fair trade in the interest of economic development of the world as a whole. Keeping this in mind, one might wonder why since 1999 a movement called antiglobalisation wins more and more followers seeing the WTO as their declared enemy2. Calls for an abolishment of the system grow louder and louder and the dissatisfaction amongst the more than two thirds of developing member countries shows in the debacle of Seattle where African ministers simply walked out or the collapse of trade talks in Cancun. Has the WTO really developed into a mere tool of the rich and powerful Western countries and Japan and are corporate lobby groups the big winners, while the poor the big losers? This question forms the centre of the following explanations, which shortly outline the original idea behind the WTO, then concentrate on the problems of implementing this idea, and finally answer the question in a conclusion. Due to the limitations of this essay it is not possible to cover everything associated with the WTO. The texts indicated as footnotes should be considered for further exploration. 1 Nitya Nanda, WTO and Development, It’s all about a mercantilist game.

The World Trade Organization (WTO) is one of the most important international organizations in existence today. It contains a set of disciplines that affect the ability of governments to impose trade restrictions, and has helped to support the steady expansion of international trade since the 1950s. It is a unique organization in providing a framework for member states to make binding policy commitments that are enforced through a unique dispute settlement system and a variety of transparency mechanisms. Despite – or because of – its success, the WTO has recently become the focus of vociferous protests by anti-globalization activists. This book separates the facts from the propaganda and provides an accessible overview of the WTO's history, structure and policies as well as a discussion of the future of the organization. It also confronts the criticisms of the WTO and assesses their validity.

The GATT and WTO dispute settlement systems have become the most frequently used international mechanisms for the settlement of trade disputes among governments. The 1994 Agreement Establishing the WTO introduced a historically unprecedented new dispute settlement procedure for conflicts involving trade in goods and services, trade-related investment measures, and intellectual property rights. This procedure provided for the compulsory jurisdiction of the WTO Dispute Settlement Body, WTO Panels, and the WTO Appellate Body. The first 18 months from the time the WTO Agreement came into force on 1 January 1995 witnessed more than 50 invocations of the new dispute settlement procedures by a large number of countries, including many from the developing world. This large response, and the proposals for further extending the scope of WTO law, suggest that the WTO dispute settlement system will continue to be the most frequently applied, worldwide systems for the legal settlement of trade disputes among governments. This book provides students, lawyers and diplomats a thought-provoking and practice-oriented analysis of the GATT/WTO dispute settlement rules, procedures, and problems. The Annexes include a useful collection of relevant texts and tables of past GATT and WTO case law.
