Editorial Reviews
Review
'In the words of Pauwelyn, it is 'one of the main purposes of this book to reject the 'self-contained' view of WTO law' expressed by some authors who reject the very possibility of bi- or plurilateral modifications of WTO rights and obligations. For this reviewer, Pauwelyn has achieve this aim in an impressive manner.' Heiderlberg Journal of International Law
'... a good and interesting analysis of the field ... will be useful for everyone interested in general categories of, and generalist approaches to, public international law.' Cambridge Law Journal
'... an attempt of the highest order to maintain the unity of international law, and to construe the body of international law as a rationally-based and intelligible system of rules, rather than some chaotic amalgamation. ... enormously compelling. ... It is definitely one of the most important international law books on my shelves, and will be for years to come.' Journal of International Economic Law
Book Description
How do trade agreements interact with agreements on human rights or the environment? In case of conflict, which agreement should prevail? Must trade disputes be examined only from the angle of trade rules or should account be taken also of non-trade values? Joost Pauwelyn considers these questions and reveals how the different rules of international law interact, with the aid of procedural guidelines when conflict occurs. This book interests trade diplomats, international civil servants, lawyers, NGOs and scholars of public international law and international trade law.
