Title | A critical evaluation of the perceived conflict between globalized trade and the protection of the environment with specific reference to the dispute resolution mechanism of the World Trade Organisation |
Authors | Jones, M. |
Abstract | The thesis seeks to address two central questions: Firstly, is there a conflict between liberalised international trade and the protection of the environment, and if so, to what extent? This issue will be explored through a scrutiny of relevant environmental cases adjudicated by the World Trade Organisation and its predecessor, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (“GATT”). Secondly, if it is taken that some conflict does exist, and when juxtaposed against the objective of free international trade, how far is the WTO willing and, in fact, able to accommodate environmental concerns? |
