This course explores interactions between the World Trade Organisation (WTO) and crucial trade issues. It critically analyses classical and contemporary challenges in the context of agriculture, environment, intellectual property rights, investment, human rights/labour rights and development. Description: The course considers crucial issues relevant to the WTO's multilateral trading system. With the surge in international trade triggered by globalisation, the WTO presents - often lengthy and complex - rules of trade between nations to organise producers of goods and services in their business transactions. Employing a mix of authoritative primary and secondary sources, the course covers core issues in the WTO's architecture.
