A CHINESE PERSPECTIVE ON WTO REFORM

This book discusses the most recent developments in the WTO regime. Issues such as E-commerce, security exception clause, China’s compliance with the WTO obligations, sustainability development, IP protection in FTZs, trade controls and etc., are at the forefront of WTO studies.

Therefore, this book explores extensively these issues from a Chinese perspective to see what China could do to reboost the world trade.
