We need a world trade organization. We just don't need the one that we have. By pitching unequally matched states together in chaotic bouts of negotiating the global trade governance of today offers - and has consistently offered - developed countries more of the economic opportunities they already have and developing countries very little of what they desperately need. This is an unsustainable state of affairs to which the blockages in the Doha round provide ample testimony. So far only piecemeal solutions have been offered to refine this flawed system. Radical proposals that seek to fundamentally alter trade governance or reorient its purposes around more socially progressive and egalitarian goals are thin on the ground. Yet we eschew deeper reform at our peril. In What's Wrong with the World Trade Organization and How to Fix It Rorden Wilkinson argues that without global institutions fit for purpose, we cannot hope for the kind of fine global economic management that can put an end to major crises or promote development-for-all. Charting a different path he shows how the WTO can be transformed into an institution and a form of trade governance that fulfils its real potential and serves the needs of all.

This book establishes a framework for analysis of the institutional and normative character of the WTO by locating the organization in a broader theory of international institutional law and in determining the basis for the conferral and exercise of powers in relation to its executive, legislative and adjudicative functions. The WTO is also read as an international regime in order to go beyond its formal legal and constitutional bases and to observe the Members' practice in the context of the former semi-institutionalised GATT treaty regime with which it retains strong links. WTO decision-making, which underpins and informs its institutional and normative acts, is analysed in order to better understand the dynamics of the organization. Normative developments in the WTO are reviewed from the perspective of the creation, maintenance and revision of legally binding and non-binding or 'soft' law norms, in the sense of principles, rules and standards contained in primary treaty rules, which set out the rights and obligations of the Members, and subsidiary rule-making activity by WTO bodies.

"China's accession to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) in 2001 was hailed as the natural conclusion of a long march that started with the reforms introduced by Deng Xiaoping in the 1970s. However, China's participation in the WTO since joining has been anything but smooth, and its self-proclaimed "socialist market economy" system has alienated many of its global trading partners - as recent tensions with the United States exemplify. Prevailing diplomatic attitudes tend to focus on two diametrically opposing approaches to dealing with the emerging problems: the first is to demand that China completely overhaul its economic regime; the second is to stay idle and accept that the WTO must accommodate different economic regimes, no matter how idiosyncratic and incompatible. In this book, Mavroidis and Sapir propose a third approach. They point out that, while the WTO (as well as its predecessor, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade [GATT]) has previously managed the accession of socialist countries or of big trading nations, it has never before dealt with a country as large or as powerful as China. Therefore, in order to simultaneously uphold its core principles and accommodate China's unique geopolitical position, the authors argue that the WTO needs to translate some of its implicit legal understanding into explicit treaty language. Focusing on two core complaints - that Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) benefit from unfair trade advantages, and that domestic companies (both private as well as SOEs) impose forced technology transfer on foreign companies as a condition for accessing the Chinese market - they lay out their specific proposals for successful legislative amendment"--.

More straightforward, more coherent WTO trade rules and an effective system for adherence to those rules would make trade more accessible, more predictable, and less prone to political interference. The world would be better off. That is why reform of the WTO system is essential. While the reform need is widely recognised, there is little agreement on what to do. The reason is a lack of focus on why we need a WTO in the first place and what it can realistically achieve. In Rebuilding the World Trading System, Andrew Stoeckel answers those questions. He goes back to basics. The market economy is the only system capable of generating what people want. But markets need the proper rules to function efficiently and deal with external effects - whether these markets are domestic or international. Having the right set of trade rules is pointless unless there is compliance. Both aspects need fixing, but the second helps fix the first. Compliance with domestic rules is different to what is possible internationally. In a world of nation-states where sovereignty over borders is respected, nations cannot tell others what to do. They will act in their self-interest. But governments cannot make decisions in the national interest if it is not measured. That task needs expertise and, given the constraint of respect for sovereignty, is only meaningful with a proper domestic transparency process. Doing so makes it obvious that the gains from removing barriers to trade primarily accrue to the country removing its barriers. It is the best antidote to the poisonous mercantilist 'exports good, imports bad' thinking. Arguing for a WTO rules-based system, as the G20 does, is just hollow words without advocating an effective way to ensure compliance. Retaliation over trade barriers by others is not practical since a nation primarily hurts itself when it restricts trade - it 'shoots itself in the foot'. Although a proper domestic transparency process is essential to identify what is in the national interest that people accept, it is rare. But when done correctly, it also changes the politics of protection in several ways. First, by informing and educating governments and the public about good policy. Next, it exposes narrow vested interests, weakening their influence. Third, by helping build coalitions for reform by identifying those bearing the burden of protection. Fourth, by creating a more predictable policy environment, encouraging investment. And finally, by creating an environment conducive for better rules to evolve as things inevitably change.

The publication provides historical and up-to-date insights into how reform can be transformational and progressive in nature and broadens the debate by focusing not only on new pathways for decision-making but also on important issues such as the environment and the SDGs. Finally, it highlights the importance of keeping the multilateral trading system alive for the benefit of all states, particularly for small states, Least Developed Countries and sub-Saharan African countries. WTO Reform: Reshaping Global Trade Governance for 21st Century Challenges, is designed to serve as a valuable resource for government officials, trade negotiators, journalists, academics and researchers who are attempting to sort through the complexities of the organisation and the role they can play in supporting a fairer, more inclusive WTO and multilateral trading system.
