Principles of World Trade Law

While drawing heavily on the law of the WTO as a source of legal rules, this concise text also engages with elements found in preferential Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) (such as Rules of Origin) and mutual recognition agreements (such as recognition of professional qualifications in the case of services). Practical in nature, it blends straightforward descriptive explanations of the legal concepts with critical inquiry, directing readers to the key debates in the field as well as the source materials themselves. It also offers guidance with discussion questions for the reader to consider for each chapter.

Principles of World Trade Law is an ideal introductory textbook for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students taking courses in world trade law, international trade law, and international economic law as well as a valuable guide for scholars, legal practitioners and policymakers.
