00843nam a2200109Ia 4500 Perdikis, Nicholas Reforming the WTO to defuse potential trade conflicts in genetically modified goods 2001 Attempts to show that, firstly the US view of Europe's regulatory regime is misplaced and that the EU's developing policies are based on preferences expressed by consumers rather than producers' interests. Argues that the existing WTO agreements on Sanitary and Phyto-sanitary Measures and Technical Barriers to Trade, while established to provide consumers with protection, are ill-equiped to deal with current expressions of consumer preferences. Opines that new negotiations are required if the WTO is to be able to respond effectively to the new technology. 10/22/01 JOY_D A 23845 23845 0 0 0 0 CRCM CRCM 2023-05-04 0 0000000017859 2023-05-04 00:00:00 2023-05-04 A
