| Abstract: |
This Module is the first of four on the dispute settlement system of the WTO. It gives a general introduction to the WTO and then describes the basic features of the WTO’s dispute settlement system. Particular attention is given to the position of developing countries in both the WTO in general and its dispute settlement system in particular. Subsequent modules in this Course deal with specific elements of the WTO dispute settlement system: the panel process (Module 3.2), the appellate review process (Module 3.3) and the implementation of recommendations and rulings (Module 3.4). |
