Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Comprised of papers from leading experts, this multifaceted analysis explores the environmental requirements that have emerged from the trade negotiations of the World Trade Organization and their impact on developing markets such as South Asia. These essays address a variety of environmental and health-related standards and their prohibitive effect, discriminatory impact, and high-compliance costs—all of which hurt these developing markets. The volume concludes with an agenda of action points for governments, businesses, and international agencies to address the challenges these standards present.
