    The stalling of the Doha Development Round trade negotiations has resulted in bilateral and regional free trade agreements becoming an important alternative. These agreements have proliferated in recent years, and now all of the major trading countries are engaging in serious bilateral trade negotiations with multiple trading partners. This second edition provides a new collection of case studies illustrating the latest trends and innovations in bilateral and regional trade agreements (BRTAs). The selected BRTAs represent a good sampling of regional variation and cover the most important substantive issues. Authored by leading scholars and practitioners, each case study offers comprehensive analysis of the featured BRTA, and the format allows for quick comparisons.

    • Case studies reflect the latest developments and innovations, allowing readers to keep up to date on what is a fast-moving area
    • Presents materials in an accessible manner, allowing readers to gain a comprehensive understanding of the entirety of an agreement (or parts thereof) and to quickly compare and contrast agreements
    • Provides readers with a complete understanding of BRTAs by illustrating trends in the development of BRTAs
