Más información sobre el libro

The multilateral trading system aims to facilitate free trade while addressing disputes effectively. Since World War II, trade has been crucial for global economic growth, particularly for developing nations.

However, the World Trade Organization's implementation has been inconsistent, with powerful nations employing protective measures that disadvantage weaker countries, leading to disparities in market access across the global economy.
