Congratulations on an outstanding book on the WTO TBT Agreement!
International regulations and standards reflect societies'
fundamental choices. Regulating and monitoring them is complex, and
the renowned co-authors of this book have well understood the
multi-faceted matters at stake. In this book, world experts have
seized a unique opportunity provided by the wealth of recent TBT
jurisprudence to analyse the different dimensions of the TBT
Agreement, a WTO agreement little discussed up to now. WTO experts
as well as anyone interested in the reach of WTO law into the
balance between national sovereignty and the need for international
co-operation must read this book.' - Gabrielle Marceau, WTO, Legal
Affairs Division, UNIGE and Graduate Institute, Geneva,
SwitzerlandA relatively new frontier for legal and policy analysis,
technical barriers to trade (TBT's) have become more common as
traditional border barriers have been reduced. This comprehensive
Handbook comprises original essays by eminent trade scholars
exploring the implications of the WTO's TBT Agreement. The TBT
Agreement imposes disciplines on the manner in which WTO member
countries adopt and maintain technical measures, recognizing the
importance of such measures to advance legitimate domestic policy
goals such as health, safety and environmental objectives, but also
the potential for technical measures to constitute barriers to
trade. The contributors to this volume provide an in-depth
examination of the text of the Agreement and how the WTO's dispute
settlement system, the TBT Committee, WTO members, and other
international organizations have engaged with and been affected by
it. The book's comprehensive and accessible approach makes it a
first point of reference for all trade law practitioners,
policymakers and regulators. For scholars and students, the
Handbook will prove essential reading for a deeper understanding of
trade law. Contributors: A.E. Appleton, A. Arcuri, M. Cardwell, H.
