Book excerpt: After the World Trade Organization’s (WTO) critical December 2005 Hong Kong ministerial meeting, negotiations to implement the Doha Development Agenda (DDA) broke down completely in the summer of 2006. This book offers a detailed and critical evaluation of how and why the negotiations arrived at this point and what the future holds for the WTO.

The WTO after Hong Kong is the most comprehensive account of the current state of the World Trade Organization and will be of enormous interest to students of trade politics, international organizations, development and international political economy.

Book Synopsis Hong Kong Ministerial Conference of the WTO by : Ichiro Araki
Download or read book Hong Kong Ministerial Conference of the WTO written by Ichiro Araki and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hong Kong Ministerial Conference took place on the backdrop and hangover from the failures of some of the previous ministerial Conferences, especially of the Cancun Ministerial in 2003 to conclude the Doha Development Agenda (DDA). After failure of the third Ministerial Conference of the WTO in Seattle in 1999, the Doha Ministerial resolved to carry out trade negotiations coupled with developmental perspective and for that purpose had roughly identified twenty-one agenda items. But the DDA remained unfinished by Cancun, which had therefore caused failure of the fifth Ministerial Conference of WTO in Cancun. As a fallback measure, the July Package, 2004 was devised to save the Doha Development Round. In generality, July Package opened deadline for completion of DDA, aimed at the sixth Ministerial Conference in Hong Kong. However, none of the items were completed by Hong Kong, which could have caused failure of the Ministerial Conference. Nonetheless, under the Trade Negotiation Committee and other Committees of the WTO, enormous amount of efforts were expended to build consensus among the Members on the DDA. But because of the diverse views and positioning of the Member Countries consensus could not be achieved till the Hong Kong Ministerial. The stark differences of the Members were specially figured out on the issues of agriculture, non-agriculture market access (NAMA) and services. Nonetheless, there were some progresses. When talks recommence, negotiators cannot simply turn up and carry on where they left off in Hong Kong. They need to examine their consciences. They cannot simply be content that they have bought off the LDCs. In order for the world's poor to gain benefit from the multilateral trading system, the developed countries' markets as well as the markets of the emerging developing economies must be opened significantly. In other words, market access negotiations on agriculture, NAMA and services must be conducted at an expedited pace and they must deliver tangible results. Only by achieving this, the DDA can truly be turned into a development round for the world's poor. The matter is urgent and there is no room for complacency.

Book excerpt: U.S. officials often call the World Trade Organization's (WTO) Doha Development Agenda or "Round" of global trade talks, launched in Doha, Qatar, in November 2001, a "once in a generation opportunity" to expand trade. President Bush has identified their success as his administration's top trade priority. Due to various U.S. notification and consultation requirements, concluding the negotiations in 2006 is essential for a Doha agreement to qualify for congressional consideration under U.S. Trade Promotion Authority (TPA), which expires July 1, 2007. A ministerial meeting among the WTO's 149 members was held on December 13-18, 2005, in Hong Kong, China, to make decisions needed to advance the talks. Given the importance of the WTO Doha Round to the United States, GAO was asked to provide an update on the status of the negotiations. In this report, the latest in a series on the negotiations, we (1) provide the status of the Doha negotiations on the eve of the Hong Kong ministerial, (2) review the outcome of the Hong Kong ministerial, and (3) discuss the prospects for concluding the Doha Round before

Book Synopsis Agreeing and Implementing the Doha Round of the WTO by : Harald Hohmann
Download or read book Agreeing and Implementing the Doha Round of the WTO written by Harald Hohmann and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-11-10 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Doha Round is the first major trade negotiation round under the WTO since the failure of the Seattle Ministerial in 1999. The Doha discussions and results will have a large impact on the future of international trade law. Leading scholars and practitioners from three continents comment on four such areas in this book. Firstly, poverty eradication, capacity building, and special and differential treatment are required to change for WTO law to be accepted globally; this may lead to a reinterpretation of WTO law. Secondly, the major trade policy concerns, the global concept of competition, and the impacts of trade facilitation and of sustainability of trade liberalization are examined. The third topic is the improvement of the dispute settlement through, for example, a relaxation of tensions between the judicial and diplomatic models. Finally, possible solutions for the balance between free trade, environmental protection and human rights are explored.

Book Synopsis Implementing a WTO Agreement on Trade Facilitation by : J. M. Finger
Download or read book Implementing a WTO Agreement on Trade Facilitation written by J. M. Finger and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Contrary to the prevailing view that the Doha negotiations have achieved little, the authors find that on trade facilitation much progress has been made. This is particularly true in regard to action by development banks and bilateral development agencies to meet client demand for assistance in reform. Active private sector participation has been an important factor driving change. Many agencies have been involved in this work. The authors find that their roles have been consistent with their comparative advantages. As to how the international community can best support continued progress, the authors conclude in favor of a cautious approach to the imposition of new WTO obligations in the area of trade facilitation. On the whole, this is the approach the WTO has taken, for example, by limiting its negotiations on trade facilitation to several specific provisions of the GATT. The WTO can continue to function as a catalyst for reform. It is perhaps uniquely placed to relate the trade facilitation agenda to the overall trade agenda. On design and construction of the relevant infrastructures and capacities to spur development, the development institutions, including bilateral agencies, should continue to lead. The authors find little evidence to support the need for a comprehensive new "platform" or mechanism to channel trade-related aid as part of implementation of any new agreement at the WTO on trade facilitation. They recommend, however, that an innovative approach to using the well established, but under utilized Trade Policy Review Mechanism be considered to increase transparency on where new aid is going over time and to expand understanding of where and how country-based progress has been achieved."--World Bank web site.
Download or read book The WTO written by T K Bhaumik and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2006-08-04 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book narrates the story of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) with a view to finding a solution to the unproductive conflicts hampering its functioning. The author ably captures the tensions within the WTO and also the developments which have given rise to these complex conflicts. While the author maintains that the biggest challenge before the WTO is the North-South discord, he highlights the frequent emergence of South-South and North-North conflicts as a result of a growing diversity of interests. The book presents a chronological description of developments within the WTO (from its inception in 1995 until the most recent ministerial round at Hong Kong in November 2005) which have been shaped by the tug-of-war between various interest groups. The book concludes by summing up key issues, and stresses that they need to be addressed and resolved in order to ensure effective multilateralism and a stronger WTO regime.
