Agriculture in the Uruguay Round
In: Springer eBook Collection
Agriculture was a major item on the agenda of the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations under the auspices of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), launched in 1986. In this specially commissioned volume the national positions on agriculture taken up by the major players during the course of these negotiations are set out and analysed, country by country, by a team of internationally renowned experts. The editors have selected and ordered the studies to provide a coherent assessment and synthesis of the main issues and areas of controversy raised by the negotiations. Examination of the reasons for the holding of different national perspectives on the issue of agricultural policy and trade reform helps to explain why reaching international agreement in this area of the GATT negotiations has been so elusive.

The uruguay round: in whose interests?
In: Review of African political economy, Volume 22, Issue 66
ISSN: 1740-1720
The Briefing reviews the implications of the new World Trade Organisation (WTO), which replaces GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade), for Africa's place in international trade. In particular, it is suggested that the WTO, and the new disputes procedure, are unlikely to improve Africa's relative position in the world capitalist system and may, in some important respects, even undermine it.
THE URUGUAY ROUND: IN WHOSE INTERESTS?
In: Review of African political economy, Volume 66, Issue 22, p. 564-568
ISSN: 0305-6244
THIS ARTICLE REVIEWS THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE NEW WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION (WTO) WHICH REPLACES GATT (GENERAL AGREEMENT ON TARIFFS AND TRADE), FOR AFRICA'S PLACE IN INTERNATIONAL TRADE. IN PARTICULAR, IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THE WTO, AND THE NEW DISPUTES PROCEDURE, ARE UNLIKELY TO IMPROVE AFRICA'S RELATIVE POSITION IN THE WORLD CAPITALIST SYSTEM AND MAY, IN SOME IMPORTANT RESPECTS, EVEN UNDERMINE IT. THE ARTICLE ALSO CLAIMS THAT THOUGH THE WTO WAS INTENDED TO REMOVE THE BIAS IN FAVOR OF POWERFUL COUNTRIES, THE REALITY IS QUITE DIFFERENT. AN EXAMINATION OF THE WTO AGREEMENT REVEALS THAT LITTLE OF SUBSTANTIVE NATURE HAS CHANGED. AND CHANGE WILL ALSO NOT COME EASILY OR INEXPENSIVELY. SUBSTANTIAL RESOURCES WILL BE NEEDED TO ENSURE THAT DEVELOPING COUNTRIES ARE NOT OUT-MANOUVERED BY THE DOMINANT MEMBER COUNTRIES. RESOURCES WILL ALSO BE NEEDED TO ENSURE THAT ALL DEVELOPING COUNTRIES WILL HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE PRESENT AT ALL WTO MEETINGS.
