WTO Law and Dispute SettlementLeast Developed Countries\nAuthor(s): Ronald Welsh\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Routledge\nISBN-13: 9781041022244, 978-1041022244\nSynopsis\nThis book examines the World Trade Organisation (WTO) Dispute Settlement Understanding (DSU) from the perspective of the worlds Least Developed Countries (LDCs).\n\nEnsuring predictability and stability in the rules-based international trading system requires the DSU to be accessible, efficient, reliable, and able to redress imbalances. Since the 1990s, the DSU has been the subject of review, and this book charts and explores these ongoing negotiations from the perspective of LDCs. The inability of the LDCs to fully utilise the DSU reduces their ability to redress imbalances and, by extension, their ability to fully engage in international trade and promote economic growth. This book explores the issues behind LDCs' difficulty in engaging with the DSU, with only on.
