Bilateral and Regional Trade Agreements : Case Studies Hardback
Edited by Simon Lester, Bryan (The Chinese University of Hong Kong) Mercurio
Part of the Bilateral and Regional Trade Agreements series
Hardback
Description
The history of the world trading system and international trade agreements is characterised by shifts between bilateralism, regionalism and multilateralism.
Bilateralism has recently returned, having gained momentum following the failed WTO negotiations at the 1999 Seattle Ministerial Conference.
The result is that today's international trade rules are now a complex web of instruments and agreements.
This volume contains case studies of selected bilateral and regional free trade agreements (FTAs), covering a wide range of countries, regions and key issues such as intellectual property and agriculture.
Authored by leading scholars, practitioners and governmental officials, each case study provides a comprehensive review of the negotiating history and result of the selected agreement.
Each study can serve as an in-depth examination of a particular FTA, and the group of case studies can be used to compare and contrast the coverage of different FTAs or to examine the FTAs signed by a particular country.
