World Trade Report 2003
The World Trade Report 2003 contains two chapters. The first covers developments in the trading system such as changes in the structure value and volume of international trade in goods and services. It also includes an analysis of two aspects of trade and one trade policy issue – South-South trade commodity trade and regional trading agreements. Chapter II examines the link between trade and development and discusses opportunities offered by the Doha Development Agenda for Members to benefit more from trade and improved trading rules. It lays out briefly a conceptual framework that argues countries can increase the benefits of openness through international co-operation. Such co-operation allows countries to benefit from the liberalization of others as well as their own. Multilateral trade negotiations can play a valuable role in coordinating liberalization among countries and establishing rules of the trading system that are conducive to development. The second Section of Chapter II examines the challenges and opportunities for improving the prospects of developing countries through the negotiations and work programme of the Doha Development Agenda.
