Trade Disputes and the Dispute Settlement by James Hartigan Pdf
The emerging interest in international trade disputes on the part of economists, and the ongoing interest on the part of legal scholars and political scientists, is the reason this volume has been proposed. Despite the achievements of the Dispute Settlement Understanding (DSU) of the World Trade Organization (WTO), there are many opportunities for international trade disagreement and its academic investigation. As the DSU is only in its 12th year, there is still a lot to be analyzed as to its functioning and achievements. There is already a large amount of legal scholarship on trade disputes in existence but this is much less the case in economics. There was little peer reviewed scholarship appearing in economics journals prior to 2000, but dispute resolution is now attracting the attention of economists, and that is why this volume is now proposed. This book will assesses the current dispute settlement process, assess how dispute settlement is resolved, and will provide recommendations for reform, including the appeals process. It will also consider specific categories of disputes, such as in agriculture and intellectual property, and compliance. The editor has invited 18 scholars in the professions of economics, law, and political science to contribute to the proposed volume. All of them have developed or are developing a reputation for influential scholarship in this area. In addition to the interdisciplinary focus, he has included perspectives from many different countries and regions.
WTO Dispute Settlement Understanding by Guohua Yang,Yang Guohua,Bryan Mercurio,Yongjie Li Pdf
In the course of the first decade of the existence of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes (DSU) has shown itself to be the foundation upon which the stable bas of the organisation rests. In essence, the DSU created a system of binding dispute settlement based on legal rules and procedures closely resembling a domestic, judicially based court system. The DSU established the procedures and rules to solve the dispute between the WTO Members and its formation has unquestionably added to the stability and positively influenced the performance of the international trading system. In short, the DSU is the procedural law within the WTO legal system. Although a strict system of precedent is not contemplated in the DSU itself, a system of de facto precedent has emerged and every panel or appellate body carefully considers past cases in its decisions. Accordingly, a rich body of case law has developed from the jurisprudence of the Dispute Settlement Board (DSB). This major new publication is the first comprehensive exploration of this jurisprudence. Through an article-by-article interpretation of the DSU, this book analyses how the panels and Appellate Body have read, interpreted and construed the provisions of the DSU. Its expert authors provide detailed juridical essays on each of the 27 articles of the DSU, with precise commentary on how panel and Appellate Body reports and arbitral awards (over 100 to date) affect the interpretation and application of the various DSU provisions. The coverage also includes the special or additional rules and procedures referred to in some of the agreements covered by the DSU, especially the manner in which the DSB has applied such rules to anti-dumping, subsidies and countervailing measures, and textiles. In addition, the volume reprints all of the DSU-related documents for easy reference. WTO Dispute Settlement Understanding: A Detailed Interpretation provides complete and through evaluation of the practical working meaning of the DSU. It will be of invaluable assistance to government officials, legal practitioners, scholars, media participants, non-governmental organisations, and other in their practical and important endeavors. The detailed analysis of this very important legal material will be welcomed by all concerned with matters of world trade and globalisation.

Unfolding the Quarrels - An Assessment of the Structural Background behind WTO Disputes by Erick Behar Villegas Pdf
Bachelor Thesis from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,3, Ruhr-University of Bochum (Lehrstuhl für internationale Wirtschaftsbeziehungen), language: English, abstract: International trade has soared in the last 30 years, and conseauently trade disputes have also been on the rise. The Dispute Settlement Body of the WTO serves as plattform in order to attenuate hurdles and misunderstandings. But what makes a country use the DSB? Both underlying structural variables and game theory related variables explain this. While the latter is held constant, this paper inquires in the influence played by structural variables such as GDP, population size, exports, etc, in order to determine why some countries tend to use the DSB and others don't. An index is then proposed to assess the procedural success of countries having participated in the DSB. Key words: WTO, DSB, international trade, procedural success, imports, exports.
Dispute Settlement in the World Trade Organization by David Palmeter,Petros C. Mavroidis Pdf
Any experienced lawyer knows that cases are most often won or lost on procedural grounds; yet procedural issues are often considered too technical for proper treatment in legal literature. In this extensively revised new edition of Palmeter and Mavroidis' authoritative book on WTO dispute settlement, the authors discuss all WTO dispute settlement provisions and their interpretation in WTO jurisprudence. All the decisions of panels and the Appellate Body are discussed, from the inception of the WTO in 1995 until the end of May 2003. Although the book contains considerable technical expertise, it is at the same time written for accessibility to a wide readership. This volume - an essential tool for practitioners, diplomats and government lawyers - is a comprehensive study of compulsory third party adjudication in international law.
The Gatt/Wto Dispute Settlement System by Ernst-Ulrich Petersmann Pdf
The GATT and WTO dispute settlement systems have become the most frequently used international mechanisms for the settlement of trade disputes among governments. The 1994 Agreement Establishing the WTO introduced a historically unprecedented new dispute settlement procedure for conflicts involving trade in goods and services, trade-related investment measures, and intellectual property rights. This procedure provided for the compulsory jurisdiction of the WTO Dispute Settlement Body, WTO Panels, and the WTO Appellate Body. The first 18 months from the time the WTO Agreement came into force on 1 January 1995 witnessed more than 50 invocations of the new dispute settlement procedures by a large number of countries, including many from the developing world. This large response, and the proposals for further extending the scope of WTO law, suggest that the WTO dispute settlement system will continue to be the most frequently applied, worldwide systems for the legal settlement of trade disputes among governments. This book provides students, lawyers and diplomats a thought-provoking and practice-oriented analysis of the GATT/WTO dispute settlement rules, procedures, and problems. The Annexes include a useful collection of relevant texts and tables of past GATT and WTO case law.
