This paper discusses the policy issues that e-commerce raises for the World Trade Organisation (WTO) and developing countries. Electronic commerce offers unprecedented opportunities to both developed and developing countries. In the short term, due to lack of infrastructure in the developing countries, the gains are likely to be concentrated in the developed countries. In the long term, the developing countries have more to benefit and they can gain by skipping some of the stages in development of information technology through which developed countries have had to pass. The author has three policy proposals for developing countries. First, that it would be most appropriate to classify e-commerce as trade with services with GATS discipline applied to it. Classifying e-commerce as goods trade with a permanent zero custom duty pact would liberalise all e-commerce by default, undermining the bargaining power of developing countries. Secondly Internet transactions would be best classified as cross-border trade rather than consumption abroad. The last proposal is that developing countries with the capacity to export skilled services through the Internet, should aggressively negotiate market access with developed countries in the future WTO negotiations aiming to seek liberalisation in the sectors in which they have comparative advantage and recognition of their education, qualifications and skills etc.

This study examines the potential trade gains from the rapidly increasing use of the Internet for commercial purposes. It was written as a means of providing background information for the 132 WTO members who are now developing policy responses to this new form of commerce. Written by a team of economists from the WTO Secretariat, it identifies the complexities as well as the potential benefits of trade via the Internet. The book describes the expansion of opportunities that electronic commerce offers, including for developing countries.--Publisher's description.

The purpose of this paper is to take stock and explain most of the IT- and ecommerce- related WTO issues. It provides a historical overview of the WTO's role with regard to e-commerce and IT trade between 1995 and 2003 and provides the contextual background to the complex set of existing rules, categories and debates. Its aim is to inform the representatives of developing nations, civil society, and others who want or need to understand more about the WTO's role in Information Technology governance and policy. Three key questions are addressed throughout the paper: How has the WTO approached e-commerce so far, and what results have been achieved? How can e-commerce be deconstructed into "baskets" of IT goods and services to clarify the issues at stake? How are the interests of developing nations included and addressed in the WTO's current approach to e-commerce?

How a global deal on e-commerce can aid domestic capacity development and the measures that need to be implemented by policy-makers in developing countries are vital issues, yet are not well understood.This policy guide reviews the current regulatory frameworks, legal issues, empirical data, WTO member states proposals, and existing literature on e-commerce and digital trade. It is designed to help policy-makers in capacity-constrained Commonwealth small states, least developed countries, and sub-Saharan African countries to participate effectively in global work on the subject area, including in the context of the WTO work programme on e-commerce.It also provides an overview of the international support mechanisms that are available to allow e-commerce to stimulate trade and economic performance, through technical assistance, capacity-building, and the facilitation of access to e-commerce by micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, including small producers and suppliers in developing countries, and particularly in least developed countries.

The increasing use of Internet and the potential of e-commerce give rise to important policy issues relating to both national economic policy and multilateral rules of international trade. Motivated by the argument that the liberalization commitments made at the World Trade Organization (WTO) may have a major impact on the e-commerce development, this research aims to investigate the relationship between WTO commitments and e-commerce diffusion in developing countries by using China’s coastal urban area as a case study. Taking critical realism as the underlying philosophy, the research develops two process models to answer the research questions. The model at the lower level focuses on the single process of how the WTO commitments can affect an individual infrastructural sector related to e-commerce. It was developed by analyzing the four most important e-commerce input sectors: telecommunications, banking, logistics and express delivery, and information technology (IT). The model at the higher level is a network combining the processes at the lower level, examining the overall effects of WTO commitments on e-commerce diffusion. Nine propositions were made from the higher-level model. Conclusions are drawn from outcomes in verifying these propositions. The WTO commitments are found to have indirect effects on liberalization in telecommunications, banking, and logistics and express delivery services. Improvements in these sectors have made information infrastructure and commercial services less important barriers to e-commerce than other issues. In addition, the WTO commitments have directly boosted Chinese enterprises' interest in e-commerce adoption and positively affected the taxation policy on e-commerce. All these have positively influenced e-commerce diffusion in China, while the effects of the WTO commitments on IT product imports, computer and related services, intellectual property rights (IPRs) protection, and educational services have not been evident. This research is the first study to use a specific case to examine the WTO rules in the context of e-commerce diffusion. It has implications for both research and practice. First, by examining the interactions between the external pressure from multilateral agreements and internal forces of domestic institutions, the research investigates the actual process of how the impacts of the WTO rules can be materialized. Second, the thesis confirms the argument that while the socio-economic challenges to e-commerce are difficult to surmount, the path to reducing regulatory barriers is clearer and the benefits quicker to observe. Government action is critical to removing these impediments to electronic commerce.
