Opis

This volume reviews the effects of the Uruguay Round agreements on the East Asian economies. It assesses the impact of the "greatest trade agreement in history" on the most dynamic and fastest growing region of the world from an East Asian/West Pacific perspective. It offers an objective examination of the new trading system provided by the World Trade Organisation (WTO), which extends to GATT to provide rules for trade in services, intellectual property, agriculture, and a dispute settlement process to resolve trade conflicts.
