WTO News and Research Sources

David Kleimann's picture

WTO News:
For updates on WTO and trade related news on a weekly and monthly basis you should check out the ICTSD (International Council For Trade and Sustainable Development) website (www.ictsd.org). There, you can subscribe to the well researched "Bridges Weekly Digest" and "Bridges Monthly Review" newsletters. Most of you have done so already, I suppose. If you haven't yet, I'd very much recommend them.

Research:
With regard to more in-depth research, I think I have mentioned the www.worldtradelaw.net website in class before. It provides you with commentaries and summaries on all DSB cases, has a limited online library, refers to all major trade law journals on the market, and updates on all major events....etc. etc.

Model WTO:
On another note, the student organisation Oikos at the University of St. Gallen in the north of Switzerland organizes a simulation of WTO negotiation procedures in ST. Gallen and Geneva each year. It normally takes place in June. Interested students should check out www.modelwto.org .

Have a nice weekend.
