商品描述

This book provides readers with a unique opportunity to explore how the international economic legal order (IELO) may look in a post-WTO world. The substance of this book presupposes (whether correct or not) that the WTO either: (a) Stagnates into the foreseeable future (Doha withers, no new Rounds, at best minor amendments, little new jurisprudence, effective collapse of the DSB); or (b) Falls apart completely. While neither is desirable, the book underlines that it must be conceded that neither is inconceivable. The collapse of the Soviet Union tells us that anything is possible (in 1986 no one foresaw the end of the Cold War - clearly it was a much more significant event than would be the case for the demise of the WTO and the current international economic legal order (IELO)). Similarly, just a year or two before Brexit or the election of US President Donald Trump, no one foresaw those two eventualities. Consequently, a worst-case scenario for the future of the WTO cannot be ignored - rather, it must be explored, as has been done in this book. Indeed, despite most IEL academics' commitment to multilateralism and specifically to a vibrant and dynamic WTO, academics in the field are now beginning to seriously discuss what a post-WTO world could look like (and it was the project behind this book that first launched those discussions). Accordingly, this examination of the post-WTO world will be of great value to practitioners, governmental and international officials and scholars in the IELO. This is particularly so in an era of increasingly rapid change, during which legal scholarship must also address the future if it wants to contribute creative solutions to the resolution and management of the many serious contemporary problems facing our field.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書為讀者提供了一個獨特的機會,探索在後WTO世界中,國際經濟法律秩序(IELO)可能的樣貌。本書的內容假設(無論是否正確)WTO要麼:(a)在可預見的未來停滯不前(多哈談判停滯,沒有新的回合,最多只是小幅修訂,幾乎沒有新的法理,爭端解決機構(DSB)有效崩潰);或(b)完全解體。雖然這兩種情況都不理想,但本書強調必須承認這兩種情況都不是不可想像的。蘇聯的崩潰告訴我們,任何事情都是可能的(在1986年,沒有人預見冷戰的結束——顯然,這是一個比WTO及當前國際經濟法律秩序(IELO)解體更為重要的事件)。同樣,在英國脫歐或美國總統唐納德·特朗普當選的前一兩年,沒有人預見到這兩個結果。因此,WTO未來的最壞情況不能被忽視——相反,必須進行探索,正如本書所做的那樣。事實上,儘管大多數國際經濟法律(IEL)學者致力於多邊主義,特別是對一個充滿活力和動態的WTO的承諾,但該領域的學者們現在開始認真討論後WTO世界可能的樣貌(而本書背後的項目首次啟動了這些討論)。因此,對後WTO世界的這一研究將對從業者、政府和國際官員以及IELO領域的學者具有重要價值。特別是在這個變化日益迅速的時代,法律學術必須也要關注未來,才能為解決和管理我們領域面臨的許多嚴重當代問題提供創造性的解決方案。
