Description

This thought-provoking book examines the rise of animal welfare as a serious policy concern in the international trade law regime.

The central focus is an in-depth study of the background and legal analysis of the landmark EC - Seal Products case, which confirmed the importance of animal welfare in WTO law.

The book explores how the WTO handled the relationship between trade disciplines and animal welfare, including the particularly challenging questions around Indigenous seal hunting rights.

It offers a detailed account of animal welfare and animal conservation commitments in new trade agreements, as well as mechanisms for enforcement, cooperation, and citizen participation.
