Governing the Court. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, May 2009, Pages: 148
International law and legal institutions have played an increasingly significant role in contemporary world politics. The most distinctive development is the “legalization” of dispute settlement mechanisms of global trading regimes. Due to the key features of the legal system - clear substantive/procedural rules and independent legal bodies, the WTO DS system produces an efficiency improvement, a utility enhancement, and a distributive effect. By combining a statistical analysis, case study, and game-theoretic analysis, this study contributes to comprehensive and systemic understanding of the WTO DS system. Given the critical role of the WTO in managing contentious disputes among the member states, this book can shed light on how the organization should be revised to become a more efficient, stable, and equitable institution. This book is expected to be useful not only to professionals in the field of international relations, economics, and law, but also to practitioners in global trade who needs to understand the political and economic interactions under the WTO.
