In an attempt to reduce barriers to international trade, public procurement agreements have evolved during the past three decades at both global and regional levels. These agreements give rise to a number of complex, topical issues. Yet apart from studies on European Union procurement rules, there are few books on public procurement, particularly covering regional procurement agreements.
This important new study fills this informational void by providing a detailed assessment of these agreements, focusing on the problem of protectionism in government procurement, long recognized as a major barrier to international trade. Its coverage includes:
• A thorough analysis of all of the important international procurement agreements--EFTA, the EC''s first and second attempts, the GATT Code of the Tokyo • Round, the Israel-US and Canada-US Free Trade Agreements, NAFTA, and the Uruguay Round WTO Procurement Code--with special attention to the bid challenge mechanisms of the various regimes.• A discussion and evaluation of judicial decisions of the various tribunals• An examination of the reasons why many of these agreements have achieved only limited success,• Proposed solutions to the various problems encountered• An analysis of approaches taken in the regulation of public procurement, comparing their relative advantages and disadvantages• Suggestions for ways to overcome current problems in order to both widen and deepen the application of international procurement standards.1 493 kr

This book explores current developments in transnational commercial and consumer law. It features essays written by leading experts, many of who have taken part in the negotiation and formulation of the international instruments they discuss here. The contributors look at issues arising from the profound changes that globalization is having on the legal norms governing commercial and consumer transactions, both domestic and transnational. They consider how relations between private actors, state regulators, and national courts are being completely reconfigured. This, in turn, generates pressures for legal harmonization and creates opportunities for new national and transnational legal norms and procedures to develop.
The contributions address both the dynamics and the substance of these developments. Topics included are the UNCITRAL Model Law on secured transactions and on cross-border insolvency, the ICC Uniform Customs and Practices of Documentary Credits (UCP 600), and the dispute resolution mechanism and practices of the World Trade Organization.
The content was formerly presented as papers at the 18th Biennial Meeting of the International Academy of Commercial and Consumer Law (the International Academy) at Kyushu University, Japan. Overall, this book provides readers with a solid theoretical foundation and strong familiarity with the practice of law and international commerce, offering realistic and practical conclusions.
