商品の説明
内容説明
As conflict and cooperation among states turn to an ever greater extent on economic issues, this fully updated and expanded second edition presents a comprehensive exploration of the legal foundations of the international economy. It not only examines the current status of the law, but also explores the origins, political tensions and development of outcomes that are often difficult to comprehend. Lowenfeld examines the major elements of economic law in the international arena including the World Trade Organization and its antecedents; dumping, subsidies, and other devices that alter the market; the International Monetary System, including the collapse of the Bretton Woods system; the debt of developing countries; the law of foreign direct investment, including changing perceptions of the rights of host states and multinational enterprises; and economic sanctions. The book also contains chapters on competition law, environmental law, and new chapters on intellectual property and the various forms of arbitration; demonstrating how these subjects fit into the framework of international economic law. Professor Lowenfeld brings to his task a lifetime of practice and teaching experience to produce a book that will be of use to international lawyers and non-specialists alike.

Difficult to use as a reference
2007/6/6
形式:ペーパーバック
I acquired this book at a time of acute need of material about WTO, but I now regret my haste. I can't yet testify about how satisfying the book is as a read-through, but as a reference it is dismal. The index is way too coarsely-grained for a book of these spatial and fiscal dimensions. I tried to find information about export restraints under WTO, but there isn't any index entry. Nor is there one about "vertical export restraints", a topic relevant to the transition from GATT to WTO. I couldn't find any discussion of these topics in the main text, either. The main text fails to include a discussion of relevant WTO caselaw on export restraints from 2001 (book's copyright is 2002). Nor does the book mention the Kyoto Protocol at all, despite the KP's obviously economic character and the potential for conflicts with the WTO. In fact, the entire subject of treaty conflicts seems to be missing. Do, do check the index to see if it meets your needs before you shell out for this book.
NOTE ADDED 2008/06/06: My review relates to the book's first edition, and I haven't yet seen the revised one. But as of this date, Amazon facilitates searching only the first edition. I hope the new edition has remedied some of the faults I mention, but I recommend you do more than hope: find a copy of the book and check it before you buy.

This book is very complete! All the topics are very useful and despite it is a big book that could seem complicated to understand, is an easy-to-read book even if you have not been related to Law or International Economic Law at all.
Too much enphasis on WTO and less on other organizations
2009/10/15
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
The book is full of details on the WTO structure, legal framework of the Agreements and operation, but, although over 900 pages long, it lacks depth in other areas: OECD, IMF, World Bank, NGOs active in the field etc. As it too often happens with American authors, mostly monolingual, Lowenfeld does not include French and German doctrinal works, which is a pity, as International Law, in General, and International Economic Law, specifically, are well developed in countries such as France, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and Austria.
If the title changed to something like "The Role of WTO in the International Economic Society" it would match more closely it true content.
