Building on the Canadian Approach to Trade and Environment in the World Trade Organization |
|
Author: Teshager Dagne Date of Publication: 2010-02-06 Summary: The paper analyzes the competing views on the link between trade and environment in the World Trade Organization, and come up with a proposal that better clarifies the scope of legality of environmentally motivated unilateral trade measures in the multilateral trading system. Adopting a doctrinal approach to legal research, it provides an exegesis on the various efforts towards the integration of trade and environment in the World Trade Organization framework. The paper employs the theory of transnational social justice as its analytical tool, and suggests that a state contemplating the use of environmentally motivated unilateral trade measures should first extend positive measures to the communities in other states that are affected by the purported measure.
