The politics of international trade in the twenty-first century. Actors, issues and regional dynamics

Abstract:

International trade policy lies at the heart of conflicts between north and south, and the US and EU, in contemporary debates about the international economy. The World Trade Organization has become a target for criticism for non-governmental organizations and tensions between trade policy and other key policy areas such as security and environmental policy have increased. This authoritative collection provides a comprehensive coverage of this key area of international policy in terms of both geographical coverage and key issues.
