The WTO Dispute Settlement System: How Have Developing Countries Fared?

William J. Davey

Chapter 10 in Is the World Trade Organization Attractive Enough for Emerging Economies?, 2010, pp 295-332 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter analyzes the experience of developing countries in the World Trade Organization’s (WTO) dispute settlement system and evaluates on a country-by-country basis how they have fared in (1) in the specific cases in which they were involved and (2) in advancing their major trade policy concerns. The chapter then briefly considers several possible reforms to the WTO system that would be of particular interest to developing countries. In order to place the chapter’s analysis in context, an introductory section briefly describes the system and overviews its operation during its first ten years — from 1995 to 2004.1
