The World Trade Organization: A Very Short Introduction: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The World Trade Organization: A Very Short Introduction" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The World Trade Organization (WTO) is scarcely ten years old, but it has already generated a mountain of debate, controversy, and outrage. Rulings on beef hormones and tuna-dolphin cases provide explicit examples of how the organization regulates into areas of individual consumer choice, ethical preferences, and cultural habits. The deep and far-ranging impact of the WTO on peoples everyday lives means that it is not just an institution of interest to economists, but to everyone, a fact that was perhaps most graphically illustrated by the demonstrations that have become a regular feature associated with high-level meetings of the WTO. This book provides a carefully considered explanation of what the WTO is, what it does, and how it goes about executing its tasks, and gives a clear understanding of the mandate, structure, and functioning of the WTO that is essential to appreciating the controversy behind the organization. It also explores the complicated politics involved in WTO negotiations and rulings, and confronts the controversy surrounding the WTO head-on, as well as highlighting issues of power, marginalization, and development, and raising the important question of whether it actually deserves the reputation it has come to acquire.

Abstract: The World Trade Organization (WTO) is scarcely ten years old, but it has already generated a mountain of debate, controversy, and outrage. Rulings on beef hormones and tuna-dolphin cases provide explicit examples of how the organization regulates into areas of individual consumer choice, ethical preferences, and cultural habits. The deep and far-ranging impact of the WTO on peoples everyday lives means that it is not just an institution of interest to economists, but to everyone, a fact that was perhaps most graphically illustrated by the demonstrations that have become a regular feature associated with high-level meetings of the WTO. This book provides a carefully considered explanation of what the WTO is, what it does, and how it goes about executing its tasks, and gives a clear understanding of the mandate, structure, and functioning of the WTO that is essential to appreciating the controversy behind the organization. It also explores the complicated politics involved in WTO negotiations and rulings, and confronts the controversy surrounding the WTO head-on, as well as highlighting issues of power, marginalization, and development, and raising the important question of whether it actually deserves the reputation it has come to acquire
