Global Trade Law Economic Development Through World Trade: A Developing World Perspective (Global Trade Law Series), Book 12, (Hardcover)

Since this work examines trade and development from the point of view of developing countries, it provides a rare opportunity to understand and#8211; and benefit from and#8211; the perspectives of the developing world. Developing nations comprise two-thirds of the membership of the World Trade Organization (WTO) so a work produced by an array of experts from those countries provides an important window on the intersection of trade and development. Since many of the topics covered in the work describe on-going progress in the WTOand#8217;s and#8220;developmentand#8221; or Doha Round, the book also helps readers to understand the context, issues and results of this important round of international trade negotiations.
