WTO negotiations on the harmonization of rules of origin: a first critical appraisal

Article Abstract:

The finalization of a complete set of rules of origin may take several more years to complete. According to the Union of Industrial and Employers' Confederations of Europe (UNICE), the rules agreed so far are too complicated to implement, typically requiring data and expertise not usually available to firms. Consequently, UNICE has called for the simplification of rules of origin to ensure that administrative costs are not too burdensome. It has also asked that the World Trade Organization take into consideration future technical developments when planning its rules of origin framework.

China's economic reforms and integration into the world trading system

Article Abstract:

China's economic reforms have driven the country's quest for modernization and industrialization. These reforms have also generated continuously high growth rates since 1978, with China progressing steadily along its gradual path towards a market economy. The country's reform process is a fairly dynamic one, with the government introducing reforms as fast as is possible without jeopardizing social stability. China's decision to enter into negotiations with the World Trade Organization is the country's latest signal to investors of its seriousness about opening up its huge market.
