The Doha Round

Viac o knihe

The Doha Round, initiated by the World Trade Organization in 2001, aimed to promote market economy and development while addressing global issues like terrorism. Unlike the lengthy Uruguay Round, which extended over seven years, this round was intended to conclude within three years, targeting consensus by 2004. However, nearly five years later, the negotiations have faced significant challenges, suggesting a prolonged struggle rather than a swift resolution. The essay provides an in-depth analysis of these dynamics and their implications for international trade.
