This companion volume to An Introduction to the WTO Agreements is an indispensable evaluation, section by section, of where the WTO agreements represent progress over the GATT rules they have replaced. The author also analyzes their deficiencies and imbalances from the point of view of the developing countries. He also proposes detailed changes (and strategies) which, in his view, the countries of the South ought now to be putting forward in the next round of negotiations on trade and related issues which have already commenced.
