A detailed examination of WTO agreements regulating trade in goods,
discussing legal context, policy background, economic rationale,
and case law. The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) has
extended its institutional arsenal since the Kennedy round in the
early 1960s. The current institutional design is the outcome of the
Uruguay round and agreements reached in the ongoing Doha round
(begun in 2001). One of the institutional outgrowths of GATT is the
World Trade Organization (WT0), created in 1995. In this book,
Petros Mavroidis offers a detailed examination of WTO agreements
regulating trade in goods, discussing legal context, policy
background, economic rationale, and case law. Each chapter examines
a given legal norm and its subsequent practice. In particular, he
discusses agreements dealing with customs clearance; "contingent
protection" instruments, which allow WTO members unilaterally to
add to the negotiated amount of protection when a certain
contingency (for example, dumping) has occurred; TBT (Technical
Barriers to Trade) and SPS (Sanitary and Phyto-sanitary Measures)
agreements, both of which deal with such domestic instruments as
environmental, health policy, or consumer information; the
agreement on Trade Related Investment Measures (TRIM);
sector-specific agreements on agriculture and textiles;
plurilateral agreements (binding a subset of WTO membership) on
government procurement and civil aviation; and transparency in
trade relations. This book's companion volume examines the GATT
regime for international trade.
