Isabel Feichtner fills this gap by challenging the conventional view that the WTO's political bodies do not engage in significant law-making. She systemises the GATT and WTO waiver practice and suggests a typology of waivers as individual exception, general exception and rule-making instruments. She also presents the procedural and substantive legal requirements for the granting of waivers, deals with questions of judicial review and interpretation of waiver decisions, and clarifies the waiver's potential and limits for addressing the need for flexibility and adaptability in public international law and WTO law in particular. By connecting the analysis of waiver competence and waiver practice to the general stability/flexibility challenge in public international law, the book sheds new light on the WTO, international institutions and international law. 410 0$aCambridge international trade and economic law ;$v7. 517 3 $aThe Law & Politics of WTO Waivers 606 $aForeign trade regulation 606 $aForeign trade promotion 606 $aWaiver 615 0$aForeign trade regulation. 615 0$aForeign trade promotion. 615 0$aWaiver. 676 $a343/.087 700 $aFeichtner$b Isabel$0612311 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461257303321 996 $aThe law and politics of WTO waivers$92476291 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04393nam 2200661 a 450 001 9910457769203321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-280-87973-4 010 $a9786613721044 010 $a90-272-7913-6 035 $a(CKB)2550000000074588 035 $a(EBL)811292 035 $a(OCoLC)797919075 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000566621 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11349955 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000566621 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10551636 035 $a(PQKB)10322271 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC811292 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL811292 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10518037 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL372104 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000074588 100 $a19861010d1986 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aFocus on the Caribbean$b[electronic resource] /$fedited by Manfred Go?rlach and John A.
