This book is a comprehensive introduction to international trade law, written by one of Canada's leading practitioners in the field. The book describes the principles that underpin the international trading system, and the evolving jurisprudence under the World Trade Organization that is providing ever-increasing definition of the international rules to which Canadian laws must conform. The author provides a detailed analysis of each of the trade agreements, such as "NAFTA," to which Canada is a party; he describes how these agreements are interrelated and how they affect Canadian domestic law.
