Third annual report of the American Law Institute project on WTO Law. The project undertakes yearly analysis of the case law from the adjudicating bodies of the WTO. Reporters' Studies for 2003 cover a wide range of WTO law. Each case is evaluated jointly by an economist and a lawyer. Studies do not cover all issues discussed in a case, but seek to discuss both the procedural and the substantive issues that form the 'core' of the dispute.

John H. Jackson

This book grapples with the long-held assumptions of international law (such as the consent basis of international law norms, equality of nations, restrictive or text-based treaty interpretations and applications, the monopoly of internal national power, and non-interference), and how they are being fundamentally altered by the forces of globalization. It also examines the challenges facing the WTO as a component of international economic law, and how that field is inextricably linked to general international law.

Compiled by Appellate Body Secretariat

The WTO Appellate Body is responsible for deciding appeals relating to disputes among the WTO's 148 Members. The Appellate Body Repertory is the definitive reference tool for practitioners of WTO law, and others interested in the field of international trade law. It contains excerpts from WTO Appellate Body Reports, dating from the first Appellate Body Report adopted in May 1996, through to the sixty-eighth Report adopted in May 2005. The excerpts are organized according to the particular provision of the WTO Agreements examined, and by subject-matter.

At a pivotal point in the history of the WTO, when development issues are at the heart of negotiations, how the larger and more powerful members address the legitimate concerns of its poorest and most vulnerable members will shape the perception of the institution throughout the century. This book aims not only to document almost ten years of experience of small states with the WTO but also to explain why these have occurred.

Bringing together articles by some of the leading policy-makers, this book examines: the relationship and balance between political governance and dispute settlement; the functioning of the dispute settlement procedures and various reform proposals; the contribution of the Appellate Body to the development of international trade law; and treaty interpretation in a number of international dispute settlement fora such as the WTO, the International Court of Justice, the European Court of Justice, and the Tribunal for the Law of the Sea.

This book gathers papers from distinguished experts discussing how health based trade restrictive measures have fared in WTO case law. With an analysis of applicable primary law (GATT, TBT, and SPS) and all case law in the area of trade and health, this book offers a comprehensive discussion on the standards established for the regulation of public health and safety issues. It aims to demonstrate how the world trading regime has come of age and accepted that trade liberalization cannot take place at the expense of nationally defined social values.

This compilation of 45 case studies documents different experiences among economies in addressing the challenges of participating in the WTO.
