Trade and Environment in the World Trade Organization. Edition No. 1

VDM Publishing House, May 2009, Pages: 164

Environmentally motivated unilateral trade measures
have been at the center of attention in the World
Trade Organization’s dispute settlement apparatus and
in other organs of the multilateral trading system.
The controversy around these measures concerns, first
and foremost, their legality under the WTO rules. The
book addresses the question whether environmentally
motivated unilateral trade measures are allowed in
the WTO. It argues that these measures are allowed in
the system only as a last resort and only if their
application runs congruent to the values and
objectives recognized by the system. It suggests a
technique by which the scope of legality of
environmentally motivated unilateral trade measures
may be clarified. It is hoped that the discussion
and proposition in this book will contribute to the
discourse on the clarification of the status of
environmentally motivated unilateral trade measures
in the WTO.
