Synopsis

The global economy is currently at a critical moment: international economic integration has deepened, and with it trade and investment rules have proliferated; yet the benefits of international economic cooperation have not accrued evenly to all stakeholders. Participation in the system is visibly unbalanced, both among economies and among stakeholders within individual economies. These disparities are manifest at both the international and domestic levels. Globalization per se is not the problem. What is needed is a more inclusive globalization. How could different economies and stakeholders more equitably benefit from globalization in a sustainable manner? They must first have the capacity to do so. Stakeholders must be able to identify market opportunities, form and advance their positions in negotiations, and implement and enforce negotiated outcomes. The issue of capacity is thus the core of this book.Launched at a strategic and timely moment for the global economy, this book examines key capacity constraints and efforts at building capacity in international economic law. Where do capacity deficits lie? What has been done to mitigate them? What are the possible future actions? These are some of the questions that this book seeks to answer.
