Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

The paper provides policy options as regards the traditional application of MFN treatment and identifies reactions by States to the unexpected broad use of MFN treatment, and provides several drafting options, such as specifying or narrowing down the scope of application of MFN treatment to certain types of activities, clarifying the nature of "treatment" under the IIA, clarifying the comparison that an arbitral tribunal needs to undertake as well as a qualification of the comparison "in like circumstances" or excluding its use in investor-State cases.

Download or read book Resolution of Non Tariff Barriers in Bilateral Trade Agreements written by Jeffrey E. Farrah and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The incredible success of the World Trade Organization and bilateral Free Trade Agreements in reducing tariffs has shifted the battle for market access in the twenty-first century. Countries that seek to protect their markets now must resort to non-tariff barriers. Unfortunately for exporters, non-tariff barriers are elusive and it is difficult to prove the illegality of a measure within the confines of the standard dispute settlement system. Additionally, the current dispute settlement system is litigious and lengthy. This article draws upon lessons from the U.S. - Korea Free Trade Agreement and the current political climate and concludes that the United States must develop a new framework to address non-tariff barriers to trade within bilateral trade agreements. It is proposed that an NTB Resolution Mechanism be included within U.S. bilateral trade agreements. The NTB Resolution Mechanism should build on proposals at the World Trade Organization that require that NTBs be examined within 60 days and focus on the trade restrictiveness - and not the legality - of the measure. But the Congressional Proposal to Open Korea's Automotive Market makes it clear that the NTB Resolution Mechanism must have teeth to assure exporters that trade barriers will be addressed. One option is to include the Korea trade agreement's “snap-back” provision within the NTB Resolution Mechanism. Next, the NTB Resolution Mechanism should allow for a private right of action. Exporters are concerned that the United States government may not take up their cause over discrete non-tariff barriers in otherwise complicated bilateral relationships. A private right of action would guarantee that all companies with market access problems are heard. Finally, a continuous monitoring platform should be created that documents non-tariff barriers. The platform would exist within U.S. bilateral trade agreements and would be built upon the principles of three structures: the National Trade Estimate Report on Foreign Trade Barriers of the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative; the Automotive Working Group of the U.S. - Korea Free Trade Agreement; and the Codes of Liberalisation of Capital Movements of the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development. The platform would provide a formal channel to raise non-tariff barriers and ratchet-up pressure to remove the barriers. The platform would also provide a channel to build evidence prior to engaging the NTB Resolution Mechanism. Market access is the issue that drives corporate support for liberalization of international trade. The United States must build structures within its trade agreements that can adequately address market access inhibitors like non-tariff barriers. Without these structures, agreements like the U.S. - Korea Free Trade Agreement will not be ratified by a Congress that is increasingly skeptical of liberalized trade, and the United States will fall further behind in global trade agreements.

This book was released on 1995-03-29 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mandated standards used for vehicle airbags, International Organization for Standards (ISO) standards adopted for photographic film, de facto standards for computer software--however they arise, standards play a fundamental role in the global marketplace. Standards, Conformity Assessment, and Trade provides a comprehensive, up-to-date analysis of the link between standards, product testing and certification, and U.S. economic performance. The book includes recommendations for streamlining standards development, increasing the efficiency of product testing and certification, and promoting the success of U.S. exports in world markets. The volume offers a critical examination of organizations involved in standards and identifies the urgent improvements needed in the U.S. system for conformity assessment, in which adherence to standards is assessed and certified. Among other key issues, the book explores the role of government regulation, laboratory accreditation, and the overlapping of multiple quality standards in product development and manufacturing. In one of the first treatments of this subject, Standards, Conformity Assessment, and Trade offers a unique and highly valuable analysis of the impact of standards and conformity assessment on global trade.

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.

Download or read book China s Growing Role in World Trade written by Robert C. Feenstra and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-03-10 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In less than three decades, China has grown from playing a negligible role in international trade to being one of the world's largest exporters, a substantial importer of raw materials, intermediate outputs, and other goods, and both a recipient and source of foreign investment. Not surprisingly, China's economic dynamism has generated considerable attention and concern in the United States and beyond. While some analysts have warned of the potential pitfalls of China's rise—the loss of jobs, for example—others have highlighted the benefits of new market and investment opportunities for US firms. Bringing together an expert group of contributors, China's Growing Role in World Trade undertakes an empirical investigation of the effects of China's new status. The essays collected here provide detailed analyses of the microstructure of trade, the macroeconomic implications, sector-level issues, and foreign direct investment. This volume's careful examination of micro data in light of established economic theories clarifies a number of misconceptions, disproves some conventional wisdom, and documents data patterns that enhance our understanding of China's trade and what it may mean to the rest of the world.
