Opis

China's historic accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in November 2001 not only represents an important milestone in China’s integration into the global economy, but is also among the most important events in the history of the WTO and the multilateral trading system. Through a thorough examination of China’s experience in the multilateral trade institution, this book seeks to better understand not only China’s influence on the efficacy and legitimacy of the WTO, but also the impact of WTO membership on policy changes within China.
