  • THE INTERNATIONAL LAW & POLICY SERIES

    Welcome to Cameron Mays 2002 Catalogue. As you may notice, we have consist-ently expanded the breadth of the areas we cover. We now publish widely acrossmany aspects of public and private international law, including new products coveringinternational criminal law, international commercial arbitration and international hu-man rights, as well as continually expanding our products covering all aspects of interna-tional trade law and international environmental law.

    Over the past eight years our attention has been drawn to one facet of an evermoreliberal economic order. The way in which so much supra-national and cross-boundaryregulation has been incorporated into national legal systems. This has had, and willcontinue to have, a profound effect on anyone studying or practising law Also, muchof the regulation, previously considered as part of a discrete discipline, now informs other,previously disconnected areas. For instance, the Precautionary Principle that was oncethe sole preserve of the environment lobby, has now been cited extensively in the WTOwithin international trade disputes.

    Another new initiative we have undertaken is the acquisition and expansion of the one ofthe oldest and most popular international law resources websites, www.lexmercatoria.org.This is a free resource containing all the essential texts of the main treaties and regula-tions covering all areas of international law. If you do take the time to visit it and use it,you will be in good company - some four million individuals do so annually!

    We hope that the following titles will provide you with the tools necessary to address andunderstand these issues. Written and edited by internationally-acknowledged experts inthe field, (many of whom have decided to write for us rather than some of the better-known publishers because of our specialist knowledge and understanding of our subjectareas) we are sure that you will find them invaluable both as lexicons, and as the mostprospective and exhaustive analyses of public and private international law.

    Cameron May titles may be ordered through your regular supplier, directly using theorder form at the back of this catalogue, or via our website at www.lexmercatoria.org.Please note that all of our publications are also available electronically on CD-ROMon clients request, otherwise copies are issued in print. Further information on all newand forthcoming titles will be posted on our website, as will details of the various confer-ences that we host throughout the world.

    ANATOMY OF A TRADE DISPUTE: A DOCUMENTARYHISTORY OF THE KODAK - FUJI FILM DISPUTE

    By James P. Durling

    Although there have been many trade disputes adjudicated before the WTO, thebattle between the United States and Japan over consumer photographic film standsout as a landmark struggle. Known more popularly as the Film Dispute or theKodak-Fuji Dispute, this particular trade conflict received an unprecedented amountof media, academic, and international attention. The impact of this case continuesto reverberate, as different interests have cited it for the various lessons that have to belearned.

    The Film Dispute represents a textbook example of a trade policy battle. The combi-nation of two fierce commercial rivals, contentious cutting edge policy issues, in-tensely disputed facts, aggressive advocacy, and two determined governments all makethis an ideal case-study to analyse the different elements and evolving dynamics of atrade policy battle. Indeed, the Film Dispute has already inspired a number of formaland informal studies in classrooms worldwide. In a remarkable display of interdiscipli-nary interest, professors have taught this case in law schools, business schools,public policy programs, and even in undergraduate and graduate political sciencecourses.

    James P. Durling, one of Americas leading private practitioners - who advised theJapanese side throughout this case - has now written the definitive history of the FilmDispute, describing in detail both its Section 301 and WTO phases. Weaving to-gether the substantive arguments of the private companies, the positions of the twogovernments, and the role of public relations and politics, the author reveals thecomplex interplay of the various dimensions of trade policy battles. He combinesselected excerpts from key documents with his perspectives as an inside observer ofthe dispute and illuminates its many different dimensions. He also places the issue inthe broader context of Section 301, WTO dispute settlement, and the history ofU.S.-Japan trade conflicts.

    Anatomy of a Trade Dispute distills the essence of familiar documents, but alsopublishes for the first time various key documents from the Film Dispute, such asunadopted Congressional resolutions, letters between the governments, and ques-tions posed by the WTO panel hearing the case. The publication also sheds newlight on often overlooked aspects of the case, such as the consultations on restrictivebusiness practices that never took place. Even those who followed Kodak-Fuji at thetime will find new documents and insights in this work.

    NEW

    TRADE: BOOKS

    apply in their home markets and those that apply wherever else they do business.Over 140 Member countries of the World Trade Organization have now establishedinternational rules to define how governments can regulate trade through their nationallegal systems.

    Currently in effect in over 140 countries, WTO rules have a direct impact on virtuallyall trade in goods, the international provision of services and the protection of intellectualproperty rights. These rules provide businesses with access to new markets andimproved competitive conditions in existing ones. Enterprises conducting businessacross borders should therefore maximise the business advantages of operating withthe WTO system and minimise any aspects of the WTO rules that are contrary totheir interests.

    As WTO rules continue to develop, there is still an opportunity to influence theirformation. A proactive business will pursue new and favourable disciplines or seekto limit developments that are potentially detrimental. Those who understand andwork with the WTO rules will be far ahead of their competitors who do not. Thosewho fail to consider future developments will certainly lose out to the industry leaderswho seek to shape the rules.

    The purpose of this book is to provide business people with an introduction to theworld trading system as well as a reference guide to the implementation of WTOrules and access to resources and remedies in the major trading jurisdictions aroundthe world. Addressing countries individually, each chapter is prepared by local expertsin international trade and WTO law. The book as a whole is closely coordinated tofacilitate ease of reference and comparison of the methods by which the WTOagreements are incorporated into domestic law and the procedural routes available foraddressing WTO-related interests in the various jurisdictions.

    Each chapter (and in the case of the EC subchapter in regard to each Membercountry) addresses:

    ➢ the national context for trade liberalisation including the constitutionalperspective on international law and details of WTO membership;

    ➢ the WTO agreements in national law, and in particular the question ofdirect effect and the implementing legislation that has been enacted or isanticipated;

    ➢ WTO law in the courts, which considers the impact of WTO law when inconflict with laws of national origin, its influence in judicial interpretationof domestic law and whether private complaints may be grounded on theWTO agreements, either directly or as implemented in national law;

    THE DRAGON AWAKENS: CHINAS LONG MARCH TO GENEVABy Sean Leonard

    The ideas behind the work first originated at the 1st WTO Ministerial Conferenceheld in Singapore in late 1996. Now, in late November 1999 this book will never bemore topical, having predicted Chinas long march finally coming to an end. Hind-sight confirms that this multi-faceted account is not only prophetic, but must nowbecome an essential reference tool for anyone involved with the World Trade Organi-sation, be they global trade professional, academic, government official, businessexecutive or even informed citizen.

    The Dragon Awakens can offer a diverse readership vital information on two levels:By charting Chinas quest to join the global trading system, it acts as a compendiumof essential background information that will help explain Chinas accession to theWTO. On a second level, the ramifications of this accession are explored. Crucially,this will allow readers invaluable insights into the future functioning of the WTOwith China as a member.

    TRADE: BOOKS

    Sean Leonard conducted extensive research, and numerous first-hand interviewswith trade officials of China and its principal trading partners. His detailed narrativecovers the increasingly productive bilateral and multilateral negotiations that havetaken place in Beijing, Brussels, Geneva, Tokyo and Washington over the last years.The book traces Chinas original efforts to become a contracting partner to GATT47, explores Chinas resumption argument and focuses upon the substantive tradeissues which concern Chinas principal trading partners in the final stages of thenegotiations for Chinas WTO entry.

    The Dragon Awakens contains excellent analysis of the contemporary Chinese legalsystem in the context of WTO and GATT 94 requirements and compatibility. Thatstated, much attention is also paid to how the geopolitical, economic and securityconcerns of China and its principal trading partners have affected the negotiations forChinas WTO accession.

    A unique feature of the work is its extensive examination of the provisions of theactual WTO Draft Protocol on China, the international agreement that will serveas the basis for Chinas WTO membership, especially in the next few years. Thisdocumentation will be of paramount interest, particularly as it is rarely available tothe public. The reader will gain genuine insight into the varied concerns of the globalcommunity with the integration of Chinas rapidly evolving economy.

    Finally, The Dragon Awakens covers the thorny issue of Hong Kongs separateWTO membership, and the ironic position of Taiwan having a pending applicationto accede. Also provided is analysis of the complicating effects Chinas membershipwill have on the WTOs dispute settlement mechanism, particularly as it will beconsidered a developing country WTO member, and therefore be entitled to lessstringent and accelerated rules.

    ENFORCEMENT OF INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION AWARDS:THE NEW YORK CONVENTION OF 1958

    By Domenico Di Pietro & Martin Platte

    International disputes are increasingly resolved by arbitration. One of the undeniableadvantages of this is the convenient international enforcement of arbitral awardsunder the New York Convention, one of the most successful international instru-ments ever.

    Enforcement of International Arbitration Awards is aimed at providing the reader witha comprehensive illustration and analysis of the issues which arise through the proc-ess of recognising and enforcing international arbitration agreements and awards.Whilst not neglecting the academic aspects of the subject, the book focuses on thepractical problems which may be encountered in this area of practice. This is achievedby a thorough discussion of both the well established body of case law, as well asmore progressive and updated jurisprudence. In addition, every chapter contains apractical summary and a checklist.

    Each chapter is devoted to a key provision of the Convention. The analysis takes intoaccount the truly international nature of the subject and attempts to create aware-ness and provide information as to how specific issues have been approached indifferent jurisdictions. Therefore it may serve as an indicator of how the courts ofother jurisdictions are likely to treat these issues.

    Despite the immense importance of the New York Convention, there is surprisinglylittle literature devoted to this topic. This book attempts to fill this gap by providing acomprehensive, comparative and easy-to-use guide to the recognition and enforce-ment of international arbitration awards under the New York Convention. As suchEnforcement of International Arbitration Awards is a must buy item for legal practi-tioners and academics alike.

    THE GENERALISED SYSTEM OF PREFERENCES AND THEWORLD TRADE ORGANISATION

    Juan C. Sánchez Arnau

    The generalised system of preferences and the World Trade Organisation is theresult of a detailed research on the GSP, one of the few instruments adopted bythe industrialised countries to promote exports from the developing world.

    The future of the GSP lies in the forthcoming multilateral trade negotiations. Bylaunching the new round of negotiations on a further reduction of import duties, theMinisterial Declaration adopted in Doha reduces the scope of the preferential treat-ment but at the same time, it emphasises that the WTO seeks to place the needs andinterests of the developing countries at the heart of the Work Programme.

    Although the Ministerial Declaration makes no specific reference to the GSP or topreferential treatment, it specifically refers to all the legal elements that permit suchpreferences, thus opening the door to the utilisation of the GSP or similar measuresas part of the final results of the new round.

    The GSP was also used as a model to develop a number of similar preferentialsystems, such as the EU-Andean countries programme, the US Caribbean BasinInitiative and the Canadian Trade and Investment Caribbean Programme and more

    recently the US African Growth and Opportunity Act. The GSP is also called uponto play an important role in the restructuring of the EU agreement with the African,Caribbean and Asian countries (the ACPs).

    This book gives an analysis on how the GSP was implemented and applied through-out thirty years and the impact that it has had on the exports and industrialisationprocesses of the beneficiary developing countries.

    It has been divided into three parts:

    ➢ An analysis of the preferential trade theory including the presentation anddiscussion of a model representing this type of trade and the role of theeffective protection theory in order to understand its effects.

    ➢ The structure of protection in the industrialised countries, in the light ofthe objectives of the GSP and the above-mentioned theoretical model,thus bringing the initial theoretical analysis in line with the reality of theproblems associated with international trade.

    ➢ An overall picture of the changes in the world economy and the tradepolicy of the industrialised countries since the GSP was put into effect.The changes brought about in the structure of international trade duringthat same period.

    ➢ A detailed analysis of the preferential schemes of the different industrial-ised countries and the reasons that help to explain why preferential treat-ment has had such a limited impact on the beneficiary countries exports.The future of the GSP in the current trend of significant reductions incustoms tariffs for industrial products.

    THE AUTHOR, currently Argentina's Ambassador to Russia, was closely associatedwith the negotiations for the adoption of the GSP as a representative of his countryto UNCTAD and GATT and followed its implementation for many years in theseorganisations. He took advantage of this experience to choice this subject for a PhDthesis which recently received a mention magna cum laude in the University ofFribourg, Switzerland.

    'It is the best empirical thesis I have ever read...it includes an analysis of interna-tional trade that is extremely far-reaching.'

    THE GLOBAL MERGER NOTIFICATION HANDBOOKTHIRD EDITION

    Co-Editors: Samantha Mobley & Luis Gomez

    The last decade has seen an explosion of merger notification requirements around theworld. More than 60 jurisdictions have diverse reporting requirements with differentjurisdictional thresholds, information requirements, and waiting periods. Further-more, even where prenotification is not mandatory, several jurisdictions, including theUnited Kingdom accept voluntary submissions, which can often be advantageous tothe merging parties.

    The Global Merger Notification Handbook, published in September 1999 offered,for the first time, an easy to use and authoritative compilation of the reportingrequirements for all major, and many smaller but still important, jurisdictions. Rapidchanges in merger notification rules in the past year have necessiated this new andgreatly expanded edition. Like the original, it was prepared under the leadership ofBaker & McKenzie, a global law firm with extensive hands-on experience in comply-ing with merger control regimes around the world. PART I summarises the mergernotification requirements and procedures for 65 jurisdictions in Eastern and WesternEurope, North and South America, Africa and the Far East. For each jurisdiction,

    PART I provides:

    ➢ Overview a concise summary of the main elements of each jurisdic-tions reporting system who must report, the time when the reportmust be filed, the waiting period, whether a filing fee is required, etc.

    ➢ Criteria for Reportability a more detailed description of the definitionaland jurisdictional rules that govern reportability.

    ➢ Exemptions From Filing Merger Notification a brief description offactors that will exempt an otherwise notifiable transaction.

    ➢ Penalties and Review Procedures the penalties applied for failing to obeya jurisdictions merger notification and waiting period requirements, andthe substantive standards and time periods that apply are also described.

    PART II contains English versions of the merger notification statutory provisionsand regulations for 54 jurisdictions, including all of those with the most active mergercontrol regimes. Included are English versions and new or amended laws and regula-tions for, amongst many others, Australia, Canada, Iceland, Japan and the UnitedStates as well as the Greek and Swiss notification provisions, none of which areotherwise readily available. The EUs March 1998 notification Regulation and theUnited States detailed and important Hart-Scott-Rodino Regulations are given infull text, and generous excerpts are provided for many other countries.

    While The Global Merger Notification Handbook II does not eliminate the need forexpert legal counsel, it will enable a merging Companys in-house teams, investmentbankers, and lawyers to assess quickly the number and kind of merger notificationsthat will be required for a given multinational transaction. The hours of researchsaved on only a single transaction will more than cover the cost of this practical andeasy-to-use Handbook.

    INTERNATIONAL COMMODITY ORGANISATIONS IN TRANSITIONEdited by Erik Chrispeels

    International commodity organisations are under stress as a result of changes ineconomic policies and the political environment. The discontinuation of governmentsponsored price support measures on international commodity markets, and a dimin-ishing interest in cooperation for development between North and South have raisedquestions in governments of developed countries about the role of public authoritiesin commodity markets, and the future of international commodity organisations.

    International Commodity Organizations in Transition is a timely response to thesequestions. This book offers new orientations for the future activities of internationalorganisations established to promote international trade in commodities of export inter-est to developing countries, such as cocoa, coffee, sugar, jute or tropical timber.

    Over thirty well-known experts from around the world, holding senior positions ingovernment, international commodity organizations, associations and academia havecontributed to this book. Their analyses propose new directions for internationalcooperation in commodities grown or mined in developing countries.

    This book should be read by all those who are interested in the future of internationalcommodity organisations.

    THE EDITOR: Erik Chrispeels who was a legal adviser to many commodity confer-ences at the United Nations.

    INTERNATIONAL AND EU TRADE LAW: THE ENVIRONMENTALCHALLENGE

    By Geert Van Calster

    In International and EU Trade Law: The Environmental Challenge Dr Geert VanCalster undertakes an unbiased, thorough analysis of WTO Agreements and theirapplication to Trade and Environment issues. Employing a carefully documentedapproach, the book examines whether the WTO leaves room for the environmentalpursuits of multilateral environmental agreements; border tax adjustment; unilateraltrade-related environmental measures; eco-labelling; and state aid for environmentalpurposes.

    International and EU Trade Law: The Environmental Challenge, offers specific,non-rhetorical suggestions in each Chapter, and identifies a broader framework withinwhich the WTO will be able to tackle those trade and environment issues that areoutstanding. It is the most comprehensive and analytically underpinned study todate of a wide range of Trade and Environment issues. It provides the reader, whetherpolitician, practitioner, civil servant, academic, student or activist, with a comprehen-sively sourced assessment of the WTOs lenience for genuine environmental andpublic health concerns.

    POLICING THE GLOBAL ECONOMYEdited by Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan

    Economy, Why, How and For Whom? took place in Geneva in March 1998. Theconference proved a genuine breakthrough in the highly charged debate on globaliza-tion. Notably, it saw the emergence of a possible Third Paradigm, reconcilingdominant dogmas and sowing the first tentative seeds for a genuine meeting ofminds, as well as a more coherent vision of the future. Indeed, key personalities fromall sides of the debate voiced with renewed vigour the crucial need to counterbalancelegitimate economic and trade interests with an equally rigorous environmental ,social and ethical dimension. The fundamental importance of this delicate equilib-rium was forcefully echoed at the Ministerial Meeting of the World Trade Organiza-tion (WTO) which took place in Geneva a few weeks later, particularly in keynoteaddresses delivered by William Clinton, Tony Blair and Nelson Mandela.

    THE ROLE OF GOVERNMENT IN INTERNATIONAL TRADE -ESSAYS OVER THREE DECADES

    By Andreas F. Lowenfeld

    The public law of international trade has been a subject of much puzzlement, both inregard to the relation of states to each other and in regard to the relation of interna-tional commitments to domestic legislation. In the articles and reviews here assem-bled, one of Americas leading international lawyers explores and clarifies both partsof the puzzle.

    Part I addresses the evolution of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (theGATT) from an ambiguous agreement among a handful of states to a full-blowninternational organization, the WTO. The focus is on the interplay betweenrulemaking, adjudication, and diplomatic settlement of disputes, and on the lag ofremedies well behind the creation of obligations.

    Part II addresses bilateral accords such as the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreementand in particular the search for dispute settlement mechanisms designed to subjectadministration of national laws to international scrutiny.

    Part III addresses American legislation on the global stage, including the continuingtensions between the Congress, the President and the courts.

    Part IV is devoted to economic sanctions. The essays address the U.S. response tothe Arab Boycott of Israel; the imposition of martial law in Poland and the PipelineCrisis and the efforts of the United States to prevent its trading partners from tradingalso with Cuba.

    Altogether the 22 essays, written in Professor Lowenfelds graceful style, are not onlyinformative and thought-provoking, but are a pleasure to read.

    the negotiations. One of the purposes of this work is to assess the extent of theproblems that are to confront the negotiators of a new Agreement on Agriculture.

    Part I of the book includes a chapter on the history of international trade regulationand agriculture before a prolonged discussion of the various issues to be raised in thenew round of new negotiations. Chapter 2, written by two of the leading authoritiesin this area, discusses three categories of issues that will be important in these nego-tiations. The first category is that of the core agenda, mandated by Agreement onAgriculture. The second category of issues, referred to as new issues, includesissues such as state trading, the administration of tariff rate quotas and the questionof export restrictions. The final category of issues are those that currently lie outsidethe scope of the Agreement on Agriculture itself. The position of developing countriesis then addressed, the conclusion offered is that the latest round of negotiationsoffers probably the best prospects ever for developing countries in general, and theirrural communities in particular, to secure growth-enhancing reforms. This includes anumber of policy options for the future agenda of the WTO, which would entail amuch more co-ordinated effort involving the WTO and international developmentfinance institutions than has been the case up to now.

    Part II examines the emergence of the DSU as a single, integrated system for thesettlement of disputes. Separate chapters address the DSU, the question of developingcountry practice under the DSU and disputes involving the Agreement on Agriculture.

    Part III is devoted to a number of issues currently outside the scope of the existingAgreement. This part begins with a discussion of the issue of Labour Rights whichis particularly appropriate given the disruption of the Seattle meeting by the emergingmovement against the global expansion of capitalism and continues with anotherdifficult area for the WTO, namely competition. The next three chapters examineproblems arising from the interface between Intellectual Property Rights and agricul-ture. This includes separate chapters addressing the issues of biotechnology, theprotection of intellectual property rights in plant varieties and the extent to which theemergence of genetically modified organisms is generating policy reactions which maylead to trade disputes in the WTO. The final two chapters of the collection addressthe issue of trade and the environment.

    Following the creation of the WTO, a special committee on Trade & Environmentwas set up. This reported its findings to the intergovernmental meeting in Singaporein December 1996. Further reports will be made to the intergovernmental meeting inKyoto in December 97. The competing systems of trade liberalisation and environ-mental protection have been fraught with disagreement over fundamental principlesand objectives. However, since UNCED 1992, a consensus is beginning to emergeon how a balance between these vital policy objectives can be struck. Co-published bythe Foundation for International Environmental Law and Development and theInstitut dEtudes Juridique Européennes and edited by Professor Paul Demaret, JamesCameron and Damien Geradin, this is a collection of thoughtful and imaginativeessays on law, policy and economics by the pre-eminent individuals in the field,backed by the essential documents needed for successful practice.

    TRADE & ENVIRONMENT LAW & POLICY: INTRODUCTION, CASESAND MATERIALS

    Edited by James Cameron, Mark Jacobs & Geert Van Calster

    The trade & environment issue has remained highly contested, politically controver-sial and a source of intellectual fascination. Despite extensive discussions within theWTO, in the Committee on Trade & Environment, at the Commission on Sustain-able Development and in numerous non-governmental organisation dialogues, issuesof outstanding importance to businesses, government and civil society remain unre-solved. Significant public protest in Seattle about the negative affects of globalisationon the environment, frustrations about the failure to resolve the technical issues atthe heart of the demand for integration of environmental concerns into the tradingsystem, together with disputes such as trade in genetically modified organisms, hor-mone-fed beef, turtles caught through the harvesting of shrimp and the introductionof alien species have all raised awareness of the fundamental importance of the tradeand environment issue. Resolving the legitimacy of environmental barriers to tradebased upon the precautionary principle is a billion dollar question for business.

    This book builds upon Trade and Environment: The Search for Balance publishedby Cameron May in 1994. That was a collection of essays by leading publicists,together with a collection of documents. With so much activity, not least in thedispute settlement body of the WTO, it was important to update that publication.Ultimately we determined that there was no need for a further collection of essays butthat an authoritative introduction to the essential documents would be necessary.

    The introduction provides the right amount of information for those who want togain a basic understanding of the trade and environment debate, and also provides aguide to those who are familiar with the critical issues and simply want to be broughtup to date and pointed to the content of the cases and materials.

    Anyone working in and around the trade and environment debate, whether they bepolicy analysts, lawyers, government representatives, NGO campaigners, trade man-agers in major multinationals, advisers in and to trade associations as well as aca-demics, researchers and students, will find the documentation invaluable. It is up-to-date, completely comprehensive and has been carefully edited.

    ➢ Ted Ringrose, writing on the impact on Asian telecommunications mar-kets, was part of the Hong Kong Governments WTO basic telecomsnegotiation team and prepared the Hong Kong schedule of commitments.

    Trade & Telecommunications sets both the WTO basic telecoms agreement in theoverall context of the WTO institutional framework and the general agreement ontrade in services, including the liberalisation of value added telecommunications serv-ices. In addition a separate chapter focuses on WTO dispute procedure, and includesan up-to-date table of WTO proceedings.

    The WTO basic telecoms agreement provides major commercial opportunities for theinternational telecommunications industry by opening up foreign markets to compe-tition on the basis of equal treatment with national services and service suppliers. Inparticular, the agreement has provided a backbone for the liberalisation of domesticmarkets, illustrated by the total liberalisation of basic telecoms in Europe from 1January 1998. The agreement has also had a major impact on liberalisation of thedomestic markets in the US and Asia. The regulatory paper adopted at the sametime as the agreement contains the blue print for a level playing field and liberalisa-tion guarantees. Entering into force in February 1998, the WTO basic telecomsagreement is one of the most important developments for the international telecom-munications industry as it enters the new millennium.

    As normal tariffs and the various non-tariff barriers to trade are phased out through-out the world under the various agreements of the World Trade Organization (WTO),more and more countries are turning to sanctioned forms of import protection. Byfar the most common of these are the measures permitted under the Agreement onImplementation of Article VI of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 more commonly known as the Anti-Dumping Agreement. Anti-dumping meas-

    TRADE: BOOKS

    ures have become the protectionist tool of choice, given the ubiquitous yet largelyinnocuous act of inter-market price discrimination, combined with the relatively lowmaterial injury threshold that must be met in order to justify these measures.

    Few issues in the history of the GATT and WTO have triggered as much sustainedinterest and controversy as the issue of dumping and the appropriate response tothis so-called unfair trade activity under international regulatory law. Most re-cently, the continuing controversy over whether even to put anti-dumping on theagenda for the new Doha Development Round threatened to derail the whole effort.Having obtained the right to counteract dumping, active users of anti-dumping measuresvigorously defend what many view as an end-run around the fundamental principlesof the GATT. Few other trade issues have such a long and controversial history.

    In their book Understanding the WTO Anti-Dumping Agreement: Negotiating His-tory and Subsequent Interpretation, Jim Durling and Matt Nicely provide a much-needed resource to explain to practitioners, national authorities, and scholars thedetailed history behind the various provisions of this important agreement. It is alsothe hope of the authors that their book will prove useful to WTO Member nationnegotiators as they seek to find ways to improve on the existing agreement during thecourse of Doha Round.

    Organized to follow the order of the various articles of the Anti-Dumping Agreement,the book provides:

    ➢ a summary of the changes made from the Tokyo Round Code, includingwhere relevant a blackline version to highlight material changes to thetext;

    ➢ excerpts from the seven different negotiating drafts on the way to the finalUruguay Round text, including where relevant a blackline version to high-light changes being made from version to version;

    ➢ excerpts from the various panel and Appellate Body decisions addressingeach provision of the Agreement, through December 31, 2001; and

    ➢ commentary about the negotiating history of the underlying provision,the precedents to date, and the open issues to be addressed in futurenegotiations or future dispute settlement.

    With all of these documents collected in one place, and with plans to provide updatedanalysis of new precedent and commentary, this book is a must for anyone whoconsiders themselves a student of the Anti-Dumping Agreement.

    WTO DISPUTES:ANTI-DUMPING, SUBSIDIES AND SAFEGUARDS

    By Edwin Vermulst & Folkert Graafsma

    This book analyzes WTO Panel and Appellate Body Reports with respect to the fourcommercial defence Agreements: the Anti-Dumping Agreement, the Agreement onSubsidies and Countervailing Measures, the Safeguards Agreement and the Agree-ment on Textiles and Clothing.

    Coming in the aftermath of the succesful launch of a new round of multilateral tradenegotiations in Doha in November 2001, it provides a timely and indispensableoverview of the state of play of dispute settlement reports covering these four Agree-ments. Indeed, a disproportionately high number of WTO dispute settlement caseshave involved interpretations of provisions of these Agreements, bearing witness totheir importance in real life.

    While the WTO negotiations continue, WTO Members are likely to continue theirquest to clarify opaque provisions in the four Agreements through recourse to WTOdispute settlement proceedings. Over the past seven years WTO Panels and theAppellate Body have already made incalculable progress;this trend will only continue in the foreseeable future.

    The authors, having been involved in a number of the proceedings discussed in thisvolume, have chosen to approach their subjexct by focusing on the technicalities thatare so important in this complex area of trade law. An issue-based analytical firstchapter is followed by four chapters providing annotated versions of the four commer-cial defence Agreements which pursue the order of the Agreements themselves.

    WTO LITIGATION: PROCEDURAL ASPECTS OFFORMAL DISPUTE SETTLEMENT

    By Jeff Waincyme

    As regulation bites and pressure-groups, government, regulatory bodies and groupsof individuals become ever more active in pursuit of environmental standards, so thefield of environmental litigation looms larger on the list of possible hazards that anycompany, large or small, faces. They must now be aware of not only their potentialliabilities under law, but also how to combat what are frequently lawyer-led actions,exposing defendants to potentially enormous costs. This book, written by partners atNabarro Nathanson, details the various ways in which companies can prepare them-selves for such an action, and covers: Potential liabilities for environmental law in-cluding tortious liability, statutory liability, criminal liability and liability for breach ofEuropean legislation; the considerations for companies prior to litigation; the lawrelating to standing; the law relating to the taking of samples by an enforcing author-ity or a third party. Drawing on personal experience, the authors detail the lessonslearnt from previous cases (generally from the defendants point of view) and providean overview of the various strategies which may be adopted. This book is essential forany practising or in-house lawyer.

    WTO TRADE INSTRUMENTS IN EU LAWBy Pierre Didier

    Trade globalisation in goods and services becomes every day more real and perceptible.Businesses and the legal community, whether they fear or welcome it, have to reckonwith and adjust their daily practice to new trade rules, new concepts and new proceed-ings. This velvet revolution was amplified and disciplined by the Uruguay Roundnegotiations and by the WTO. These created new law which mutatis mutandis andto a variable degree extends worldwide some basic principles of the EC treaty on freecirculation of goods and services. Domestic legislation transposing WTO law is now

    GLOBAL ANTI DUMPING HANDBOOKWritten & edited by Cliff Stevenson

    With currency devaluations and the threat of recession sweeping the globe, it isinevitable that there should be an upsurge in anti-dumping actions. Anti-dumpingactions used to be the concern only of companies exporting to a small number ofcountries that were active anti-dumping users. Liberalisation of world trade has en-couraged flows of goods between nations, and as markets become more open, there isfear that domestic industries are more susceptible to unfair competition. Thus, paral-lel to the liberalisation of trade is an increase in the number of countries adopting andusing anti-dumping provisions. Companies operating in the global market increas-ingly find that their trade is disrupted through accusations of dumping.

    Many business people and officials now find that anti-dumping has risen up thecommercial/political/economic agenda. To this extent, increasing numbers are havingto consider anti-dumping issues in the normal course of their work. However, this isan extremely technical subject, both in terms of legal principles, economics/analysisand accounting concepts.

    Most of the books available on the subject are technical manuals, intended for use bypractitioners in the area, and tend to deal with specific jurisdictions. The Global Anti-Dumping Handbook provides a practical text rather than a legal treatise, and is theonly publication covering the different country legislation so extensively.

    INTERNATIONAL TRADE LAW REPORTSEdited by Clifford Chance, Mahmud Nawaz & Peter Morrisson

    The Dispute Resolution Body (DSB) of the WTO is now recognised as the mostinfluential legal institution governing world trade. It has become the final arbiter ofinternational trade disputes between the 140 countries that are members of the WTO.The ramifications of decisions made by the DSB are enormous, not only in terms oftheir economic impact but also as an evolving body of law, with direct and indirecteffects on national law. The cases and decisions are becoming increasingly complex,with some running to over 500 pages. The International Trade Law Reports detailDSB decisions in full with annotations and commentary putting the cases in theirlegal and economic context. These reports comprise the most comprehensive and up-to-date source of information available.

    INTERNATIONAL TRADE CORRUPTION MONITOREdited by Jeremy Pope & Fritz Heimann

    Both the OECD and the USTR have agreed that between 1994 and 1996 therewere allegations of bribery in international commercial contracts valued at $64 bil-lion. Corruption in international trade is possibly the single largest and intractabledistortion of the supposed level playing-field that exists today. This is aside from theinternational grey economy in laundered money, trade in drugs and other proscribedgoods, which was recently estimated to have a value of over $100 billion annually.This is a significant percentage of global trade flows, and a useful indicator towardsthe amount of black money floating within the international financial system. Theowners of this are not scrupulous in the way in which they clean those funds, andinevitably a significant proportion of it provides capital for otherwise legitimate projects.To help businesses and their advisors to minimise risk and to take advantage of new

    THE NAFTA ARBITRATION REPORTSedited by Chris Thomas & Cameron Mowatt

    Although investor-State arbitration dates back to the 1965 Convention on the Settle-ment of Investment Disputes Between States and Nationals of Other States (theICSID Convention), it was not until the late 1990s that this form of internationaldispute settlement became prominent. This was in large part due to the fact that theNorth American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) became the first free trade agree-ment to provide for the resolution of investment disputes through investor-Statearbitration. Such investment protections were previously confined to bilateral invest-ment treaties.

    The NAFTA Parties subsequently extended investment protections to other Statesthrough free trade agreements (FTAs) or bilateral investment agreements accompa-nying the FTAs. The United States has signalled that it will seek similar investor-State dispute settlement procedures in its future free trade agreements such as theFree Trade Agreement for the Americas.

    This development is not restricted to North America or even to Mexicos treaties withEuropean States (such as the 1997 Mexico-Spain Agreement on the Protection andPromotion of Investment). States in Asia and Oceania have also agreed to investor-State arbitration of investment disputes. The recent Agreement Between the Repub-lic of Singapore and Japan for a New-Age Economic Partnership and the Singapore-New Zealand Closer Economic Relations Agreement both provide for investor-Statearbitration.

    TRADE: JOURNALS

    Investor-State arbitration is thus a rapidly developing area of international law. Pri-vate parties are accepting this extraordinary offer to submit disputes to arbitration.To date, there have been five NAFTA awards on jurisdiction; five awards on themerits; six awards currently pending; one award has been partially set aside on judi-cial review; and judicial review of another is pending. Thus the importance of thiscannot be over-emphasised: the deliberations of the NAFTA Panels will have a farbroader readership than to just the US, Canada and Mexico.

    The NAFTA Arbitration Reports will be the first comprehensive collection of NAFTAarbitral awards and decisions as well as decisions of national courts reviewing awards.Since NAFTAs general dispute settlement process yields important interpretationsof the Agreement as a whole, those panel reports will be included as well. Eachreported decision will be prefaced with a succinct summary and a list of authoritiesconsidered. Cases of particular interest or controversy will be accompanied by thecommentary of experienced counsel and scholars.

    The NAFTA Arbitration Reports will be an invaluable resource for practitionersadvising investors seeking to enforce their rights under the NAFTA, other invest-ment treaties, or the ICSID Convention; for government lawyers responsible fordefending investor-State claims; for officials responsible for negotiating trade andinvestment agreements; and for scholars, NGOs and other observers interested inthis rapidly developing area of international law.

    The first issue will contain 13 reports from 1998 to the present. This will be includedin a loose-leaf binder that will accomodate further reports. These will be published asand when the decisions become available. We hope that, given the occaisional diffi-culty in obtaining the reports, you will find the NAFTA Arbitration Reports the mostuseful regular publication on the area.

    THE INTERNATIONAL LAW & POLICY SERIES

    print it, and insert it into the Weekly Trade Globe Binder provided. Thus you have allthe clarity and consistency of hard copy - instantly!

    The Weekly Trade Globe is a weekly trade alert, announcing trade events on bothsides of the Atlantic. The Trade Globe summarizes in bullet form changes in U.S.,EU and Canadian laws relating to trade, events in trade remedy actions (such asantidumping and countervailing duty investigations and court appeals), export con-trol and anti-corruption regulatory changes and enforcement actions, and disputesettlement proceedings and other events at the World Trade Organization (WTO).

    The Weekly Trade Globe differs from other trade related publications in several keyaspects. First, it covers trade developments in the U.S., Canada, the EU and theWTO from the perspective of trade lawyers resident in the United States, EuropeanUnion and Canada. No other single trade publication covers these jurisdictions si-multaneously in equivalent breadth.

    Second, it reports the facts and only the facts of rule changes, trade disputesand the like. Thus, for example, it does not engage in lengthy quotations from tradeexperts regarding ongoing trade negotiations. This makes the Weekly Trade Globe agood reference material for attorneys and business people who wish to obtain a quick,unbiased overview of the week in trade.

    Third, the unique distribution method we have chosen for the Weekly Trade Globeensures that your information will never be out of date.

    Fourth, the Weekly Trade Globe has been available to a small number of people forover 3 years (and the editors have never missed an issue yet!) - you need not worrythat this journal will die like other titles - we collate this information all the time forour own purposes, and with the depth and breadth of expertise provided by theeditors, Coudert Brothers, you can be assured that this journal will remain a superbresource for years to come.

    Finally, it covers all changes in certain areas such as trade remedy proceedings andWTO dispute settlement decisions. It does not winnow out trade events based ontheir perceived importance to the editors. Thus, for example, the smallest sunsetreview of an antidumping duty order is covered not merely key events on U.S. casesagainst Japanese steel imports. This makes the Weekly Trade Globe valuable forpersons who need to review all issues, not merely those issues currently popular.

    COMPETITION LAW & THE ENVIRONMENTBy Timothy Portwood

    Competition Law offers a crucial point at which environmental and economic policyinteract. Written by a barrister and lecturer in Environmental Law at Bristol Univer-sity, this book questions the perceived conflict between environmental protection andcompetitiveness, and shows how a level playing field can be both competitive andprotect the environment. It provides an analysis of the existing attempts both atinternational and EC levels to interlink environmental protection with competitionpolicy and suggests ways in which those links could be strengthened.
