Publisher's Synopsis
This second edition is a great improvement over the first edition published in 2004. Working through this guide, the reader will be introduced to all elements of the process, from the initiation of a case through to the implementation of the decision. In addition to incorporating over a decade of jurisprudence by the WTO adjudicating bodies, it provides a wealth of practical information about the WTO dispute settlement system as it operates today, including tips about notification procedures, templates of working procedures, and timetables for various types of panel proceedings. This book also expands the discussion surrounding the compliance process and reviews ongoing negotiations to clarify the Dispute Settlement Understanding (DSU) and the panel process.
