Klappentext Despite troubled trade negotiations, global trade-and trade policy-will thrive in the twenty-first century, but with a bow to the past.Is the multilateral trading order of the twentieth century a historical artifact?By reflecting on past episodes of protectionism and how they were resolved, Trade in the 21st Century provides both context and guidance on how trade challenges can be addressed in the coming decades. Zusammenfassung The repeated failures since 2001 of global trade negotiations and continuing uncertainties about the ultimate success of mega-regional trade agreements have raised widespread questions about the future of global trade policy. In Trade in the 21st Century! two distinguished experts argue that not only is trade policy alive and well! but also that there are grounds for optimism.
