Panagariya, Arvind,editor.
Krishna, Pravin,editor.
Bhagwati, Jagdish N.,1934-editor.
When the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) metamorphosed into the WTO in 1994, it seemed that the third pillar of the international economic superstructure was finally put in place. And yet with the failure if member countries to close the Doha Round of trade negotiations and the emergence of bilateral and plurilateral preferential trade agreements (PTAs) such as the Trans-Pacific-Partnership (TPP), the future of the world trade system seems uncertain. In this volume leading economists examine issues in trade policy that have arisen during this shift.
