Abstract

This Chaillot Paper focuses on the emergence of the G-20 and its role in forging global governance amidst the changing dynamics of multilateralism. In the current international system, it is clear that global problems and crises require global solutions. But concerted global action has often proven difficult to achieve, partly because of the advent of a more complex world order with a multiplicity of stakeholders. The birth of the G-20 is therefore a significant development in world politics. It reflects the emergence of new powerful states and a multipolar order as well as the recognition of increasing interdependence among the key actors. The paper explores three key dimensions of the G-20: its origins and development, its role with respect to the development of multilateralism and the way in which both old and new key actors engage with this new forum. It also emphasises how the G-20 is clearly of central importance for the EU's aim to build an international order based on effective multilateralism.

Abstract

The ability of countries to promote and protect their domestic industries in the face of stiff global competition is an important consideration in any trading agreement. Member states of the World Trade Organization are expected to adhere to the WTO Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures, but to what extent do the WTO Members have policy space to subsidize their industries? Using an economically informed framework, Caiado examines the flexibilities countries may find at the WTO to grant subsidies and impose tariffs to protect designated industries. By testing the Treaty system of entitlements and enforcement mechanisms against the theory of incomplete contract, this work offers a comprehensive analysis of the capacity of the SCM Agreement to achieve its goal: the concomitant regulation of opportunistic behavior and assurance of ex post flexibility.

Abstract

While large, multinational corporations have supported the removal of tariffs, behind the scenes these firms have fought for protection in the form of product regulations, including testing, labeling, and registration requirements. Unlike tariffs, these regulations can raise fixed costs, excluding smaller firms from the market and shifting profits toward global giants. Narrowing the Channel demonstrates that globalization and globalized firms can paradoxically hinder rather than foster economic cooperation as larger firms seek to protect their markets through often unnecessarily strict product regulations. To illustrate the problem of regulatory protectionism, Robert Gulotty offers an in-depth analysis of contemporary rulemaking in the United States and the European Union in the areas of health, safety, and environmental standards. He shows how large firms seek regulatory schemes that disproportionately disadvantage small firms. When multinationals are embedded in the local economy, governments too have an incentive to use these regulations to shift profits back home. Today, the key challenge to governing global trade is not how much trade occurs but who is allowed to participate, and this book shows that new rules will be needed to allow governments to widen the benefits of global commerce and avoid further inequality and market concentration.

Abstract

La mondialisation a progressivement vide la souverainete de sa substance, plongeant l'Etat dans une profonde crise d?identite. Parallelement, on assiste a la montee en puissance de concurrents de l?Etat, revendiquant, au nom de la gouvernance, la levee de sa mainmise sur un droit international public dont les paradigmes sont en pleine evolution. D'un droit jadis centre sur l'Etat, il se transforme progressivement en un droit commun ? de la mondialisation. Premiere organisation internationale a vocation universelle creee apres la fin de la Guerre froide, l?Organisation mondiale du commerce (OMC), dotee d?un mecanisme de reglement des differends inedit, est venue bousculer la configuration de la matrice institutionnelle internationale, articulee autour de l?Organisation des Nations Unies (ONU). Si le droit de l?OMC est un exemple phare des avancees qui sont possibles quand les Etats acceptent de se plier aux regles du multilateralisme, l?enthousiasme des premieres annees a desormais fait place aux realites politiques d?un monde marque par le retour de reflexes unilateralistes. Les grilles de lecture convenues ne permettent plus de saisir l?evolution d?un droit international qui oscille entre des poles contradictoires. La comprehension des changements induits par la mondialisation exige une approche holistique du droit et de la gouvernance. Dans un tel contexte, l?OMC se presente comme un point de repere ideal.

Abstract

Transparency of trade regulations by all WTO Members is essential for open, fair and predictable trade relations. A myriad of different regulations apply in all WTO Members and have the potential for affecting international trade. The Agreements on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary measures and on Technical Barriers to Trade provide the most comprehensive frameworks in the WTO to address the costs arising from such regulatory diversity, through obligations on regulatory transparency and co-operation. This book gives a detailed account of the legal disciplines of the two Agreements, an in-depth presentation of discussions between WTO Members, and an overview of the few cases that end up in formal dispute settlement. It shows that the strength of the WTO legal and institutional system goes well beyond its dispute settlement system, with transparency enabling implementation of WTO obligations through better information sharing and co-operation among Members themselves, through non-judicial means.

Abstract

L'OMC exerce son influence dans un univers au sein duquel se côtoient des modes de pensées et des échelles de valeurs hétérogènes. Ses règles multilatéralement agréées se heurtent à l'expression de valeurs non marchandes aussi nombreuses que variées. Il en résulte une tension qui menace la poursuite des processus d'intégration des économies.L'ouvrage met en évidence les forces et les faiblesses des divers mécanismes d'articulation des valeurs non marchandes avec les engagements commerciaux des Membres de l'OMC.Ces mécanismes concernent les dispositions relatives aux exceptions générales, don

Abstract

Cet ouvrage étudie la réaction d’un acteur majeur de l’Organisation mondiale du commerce (OMC) à l’évolution du mécanisme de règlement des différends de cette organisation. L’Union européenne est l’un des participants les plus actifs au système de règlement des différends de l’OMC. Celui-ci n’a cessé, depuis ses quinze années de fonctionnement, de se juridictionnaliser au point d’être considéré aujourd’hui comme l’une des manifestations les plus emblématiques de la juridictionnalisation du droit international contemporain.Se pose dès lors la question de la contribution et de l’adaptation de l’Union européenne à cette évolution. La thèse tend à démontrer que l’Union européenne, dont l’attitude est guidée par la défense et la promotion de ses intérêts, a parfaitement pris la mesure de la juridictionnalisation du mécanisme de règlement des différends de l’OMC. Son système décisionnel a ainsi surmonté ses propres pesanteurs et fait preuve d’efficacité pour relever le défi de la participation à l’activité contentieuse de l’OMC. Parallèlement, l’Union sait aussi préserver l’autonomie de son ordre juridique en dépit des contraintes normatives renforcées qui dérivent de la juridictionnalisation. L’Union adapte enfin sa stratégie contentieuse aux évolutions et à la nature nouvelle du système, en tirant partie du phénomène de juridictionnalisation, tout en sachant en exploiter les limites.Cet ouvrage s’adresse aux praticiens en droit du commerce international ainsi qu’aux professeurs, chercheurs et universitaires

Abstract

The World Trade Organization (WTO) recently celebrated twenty years of existence. The general wisdom is that its dispute settlement institutions work well and its negotiation machinery goes through a phase of prolonged crises. Assessing the World Trade Organization overcomes this myopic view and takes stock of the WTO's achievements whilst going beyond existing disciplinary narratives. With chapters written by scholars who have closely observed the development of the WTO in recent years, this book presents the state of the art in thinking about WTO performance. It also considers important issues such as the origins of the multilateral system, the accession process and the WTO's interaction with other international organisations. The contributions shed new light on untold stories, critically review and present existing scholarship, and sketch new research avenues for a future generation of trade scholars. This book will appeal to a wide audience that aims to better understand the drivers and obstacles of WTO performance.
