India, Brazil and South Africa belong to the most intractable blocking actors in the Doha Round. In order to explain this posture, reference is frequently made to the lack of willingness to compromise on the part of the other central actors EU and USA. In addition, the three countries' interests in the construction of an alliance of the South are cited as motivation for blocking the negotiations. This paper, however, accepts that trade policy is a two-level game and shows that the configurations of national decision processes in India, Brazil and South Africa and the resulting influence of specific interest groups significantly contribute to consolidating the blockade position. Against this backdrop, the authors are sceptical about the prospects of a compromise solution to the Doha Round.

Bilateral free trade agreements are mushrooming all over the world. The current standstill in multilateral trade negotiations will contribute further to this trend. Since dialogue in the Doha-Round came to a halt in July 2006, bilateral agreements have received additional support. In this paper, the author will analyse the utility of bilateral trade agreements and the systemic disadvantages they have for weaker players. Dispute settlement is a major issue. The question here is whether bilateral dispute settlement is inferior to the multilateral regime. Subsequently he will consider the evidence provided by Australia's Free Trade agreement with the United States as well as the bilateral agreements of Singapore and Thailand. It will be demonstrated that the current wave of bilateral agree...

Not only are many smaller organizations increasingly launching programs for the potable water supply, but so are large financial establishment icons such as the World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF).

When the General Tariff and Trade Agreement was initiated in 1947, the goal of this system was the mutual opening of national markets. In the meantime, the created world trading order is in danger to split apart into regional markets. The World Trade Organization (WTO) currently counts 200 trade unions, free trade areas, preferential agreements and economic partnerships that went back to introducing their own tariffs, distanced themselves from the most favoured nation and national treatment clauses and created additional trade barriers such as certificates of origin. The first part of the paper contains a conceptional differentiation of regional free trade areas; the second part discusses the proliferation of regional agreements despite GATT and WTO. The necessary corrections are debate...
