Reseña del editor

The ongoing negotiations at the World Trade Organisation (WTO) are a chance for developing countries to tackle the imbalances in existing WTO rules which have denied them a fair share of the benefits of international trade. This book looks at how they can best make use of this opportunity, within the negotiating parameters that have been set. It makes detailed suggestions on negotiating positions the developing countries can take to advance their interests and guard against the risk of even more inequitable new commitments. It also considers ways to create a negotiating environment in the WTO that is fairer for poor and rich countries alike. The options presented will help developing countries to select appropriate strategies and to evaluate outcomes.
