Description

This course focuses on the domestic formulation of trade policies by major players, the promotion and implementation of these policies abroad through trade diplomacy, the use of trade policy tools as shields, swords and leverage in negotiations, and the ins and outs of the World Trade Organization. Students acquire a better understanding of the central role of the WTO as the world's trade regulatory body with respect to its three main functions of multilateral negotiations, monitoring and dispute settlement, and gain a holistic view of diplomacy in the international trade order.
