Edward Elgar Publishing Edward Elgar Research Handbook Global Justice & Economic Law

The fairness of global economic governance institutions is one of the most pressing issues of our time. While many studies on the WTO and intergovernmental organizations focus solely on economic gains from trade and investment liberalization, this Research Handbook offers a different perspective. Part of the Research Handbooks on Globalisation and the Law series, this book addresses the gap in current academic approaches. It moves beyond uncritical acceptance of economic arguments to explore other ways of thinking about the roles of these institutions. This text provides a substantial interdisciplinary look at the complex structure of treaties and global governance. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of international law, economic policy, and global justice.
