Opis

This volume, built on a recent series of courses at the Academy of European Law in Florence, addresses the overlapping regulatory trade regimes of the WTO, EU, and NAFTA. The various contributions deal with discrete areas of the international trading system. The coexistence of regimes, often governing simultaneously complex transnational transactions, is the focus of the volume.

Recenzje

this is an excellent, thought-provoking collection of essays which can be read with profit by both European and international lawyers. There has been much discussion coparing the institutional stuctures of the EU and the WTO, in particular about whether one can speak of the "constitution" of the WTO. This volume concentrates rather on the substantive law of the two organisations. This departure is to be welcomed.
