Linkage Of Free Trade And Social Regulation: Moving Beyond The Entropic Dilemma, Sungjoon Cho Feb 2005

Linkage Of Free Trade And Social Regulation: Moving Beyond The Entropic Dilemma, Sungjoon Cho

All Faculty Scholarship

Focusing on the tension between free trade and social regulation, this Article argues that the WTO, in alliance with other international institutions, must develop a synergistic, nonentropic linkage within the constitutional structure of the global trading system. In the analysis set forth within the article, considerable emphasis is placed on the concept of a “trade constitution.” This is because any practical prescriptions for achieving the desired synergy must necessarily flow from an accurate understanding of the capabilities and constraints of legal and political realities inherent to a broad multisphere trading system composed of Member states, the WTO, and other international …

A Bridge Too Far: The Fall Of The Fifth Wto Ministerial Conference In Cancún And The Future Of Trade Constitution, Sungjoon Cho

All Faculty Scholarship

This article is intended to contribute to the process of diagnosis and prescription in response to the fiasco of the Fifth WTO Ministerial Conference in Cancún, Mexico, in September 2003.

All Faculty Scholarship

Overemphasizing the sanctions aspect of the WTO law, which is partly attributable to an effort to placate the U.S. Congress into the ratification of the Uruguay Round, tends to create a misguided, distorted image of the WTO, one close to a super body reigning and commandeering over its member countries, rather than one akin to a legal community. This paper questions the conventional belief regarding the efficacy of the WTO sanctions in light of remedies and attempts to reconceptualize the true nature of WTO remedies.

The Wto’S Gemeinschaft, Sungjoon Cho Feb 2004

The Wto’S Gemeinschaft, Sungjoon Cho

All Faculty Scholarship

This Article focuses on the current development-related problems in the global trading system. A widening income gap and widespread poverty among trading nations denote the WTO’s Gesellschaftian nature—interest and power—resulting in structural distortion and manipulation. This Article maintains that the global trading system can achieve its development agenda and become fair and legitimate only through a critical paradigmatic transformation enabled by the configuration of the “WTO’s Gemeinschaft.” This Article observes that a fundamental legal precept, the “Law of Nations” (jus gentium), plays a critical role in actualizing this communitarian telos. Part II redefines the global trading system through the theoretical …
