This volume is a unique study focussing on the highly controversial issue of standards of review in WTO dispute resolution. Standards of review reflect the extent to which the WTO adjudication bodies can override the decisions taken by national authorities. As such they play a crucial role in shaping the balance of power and responsibility for decisions on factual and legal issues. In this volume, the current state of law and practice is analysed and critically assessed in a commentary on the evolution of, and inconsistencies amongst, the relevant cases. Readership: lawyers, judges, and academics in the field of international trade law and international law in general; government officials and diplomats dealing with WTO matters. «
