Constraining Development: The Shrinking of Policy Space in the International Trade Regime(Anthem Frontiers of Global Political Economy and Development)

Series: Anthem Frontiers of Global Political Economy and Development

It draws a common thread through trade- and investment-related areas to show how the promises of the current international legal regime have not come to fruition and to offer new options for countries negotiating new treaties.
