The European Union and Multilateral Trade Governance

This book offers the first theoretically driven, systematic analysis of European Union (EU) negotiating positions and strategies in the Doha Round of the World Trade Organization (WTO) negotiations. This book aims to make sense of how trade actors define their strategies in international trade negotiations, offering an in-depth analysis of EU trade policy-making.

Based on an empirical study of EU trade policy during the Doha Round this book employs an original theoretical framework that combines insights from different strands of literature to develop new theories on the variation of trade politics more broadly. It shows how trade politics vary according to state-society relations and according to the logic driving actors behavior, identifying four types of trade politics: pressure politics, executive politics, civil politics and deliberative politics. From the central premise of this study, that trade policy determines trade politics, the author develops a theory that utilises mainstream conceptual and theoretical tools to explain under which conditions these different patterns of domestic trade politics emerge.

The European Union and Multilateral Trade Governance will be of interest to students and scholars of European Union politics and international political economy.

Arlo Poletti is a post-doctoral researcher at the Department of Political Science of the University of Antwerp, Belgium.

Preface

Trade politics vary a great deal along different dimensions, both across and within states. Sometimes, economic interest groups manage to capture policy-makers and force them to pursue their preferred policies. In other instances, decision makers manage to pursue their preferred trade policies in relative isolation from interest groups or other organized societal interests pressures. Both sets of actors in certain instances know exactly what their interests are and behave strategically to achieve such interests. Yet, in other situations, the policies these actors pursue can hardly be thought of as the result of rational and strategic calculations, but rather seem to reflect these actors values, causal beliefs and normative positions.
