Economic Diplomacy: Essays And Reflections By Singapore's Negotiators

Singapore might be a very small country with limited resources, yet the Republic has proven its naysayers wrong time and again. Nowhere is this more evident than in the Republic's significant contributions to world trade negotiations. The individuals involved possess a wealth of knowledge and experience that few are privy to. This book stands testimony to their efforts.

It comprises essay contributions from around twenty writers in Singapore. The writers are primarily officials or former officials from Singapore's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Trade & Industry, and the Attorney-General's Chambers who have been involved in GATT/WTO and free trade agreement (FTA) negotiations either from headquarters or at post in Geneva, as well as those who have been involved in WTO dispute panel proceedings. These essays contain the authors' reflections on their experiences in GATT/WTO and FTA negotiations, and the experiences of Singaporeans who have played a wider role in multilateral economic diplomacy.

A must-read for anyone interested in the process and dynamics of international economic diplomacy, as well as Singapore's unique role and perspective in trade negotiations.
