Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The multilateral WTO General Agreement on Tade in Services (GATS), the first set of legally-enforceable rules ever negotiates to cover international trade in services, is now a reality. This Agreement comprises the institutional framework for the many services internationally trades among countries and is intended to insure that each WTO member treat the services and service suppliers of other members no less favourably than its own. One of the most important service secotors covered in the Agreement is tourism, with its crucial role in the economic growth of many countries. This study deals with such services and their role in the economy, with specific reference to tourism and the implications of the legal framework of the GATS and its commitments regarding that sector. An analysis of the tourism secctor, both in its regional sector and international dimensions, is supported with case studies of two ESCWA member countries, Egypt and Jordan, which have made significant progress in this area.

Book excerpt: If ever there existed a benign-sounding organisation, it is surely the World Trade Organisation. The WTO is the successor to GATT. According to the WTO itself, its mission is "dealing with the rules of trade between nations. At its heart are the WTO agreements, the legal ground-rules for international commerce and for trade policy. The agreements have three main objectives: to help trade flow as freely as possible; to achieve further liberalisation gradually through negotiation; and to set up an impartial means of settling disputes". This book seeks to illuminate some key issues related to the WTO as well as present a detailed bibliography for future reference.
