"World trade and investment law is in crisis: new and progressive ideas are needed.
Rules that facilitated globalization and supported global economic growth are being
challenged. A system of global governance that once seemed secure is now at risk as
the US ignores the rules while developing countries struggle to escape restrictions.
Some want to tear global institutions and agreements down while others try desperately
to maintain the status quo. Rejecting both options, a group of trade and investment
law experts from 10 countries, South and North, have joined hands to propose ideas
for a new world trade and investment law that would maintain global growth while distributing
costs and benefits more fairly. Paying special attention to those who have suffered
from trade dislocation and to restrictions that have hampered innovative growth strategies
in developing countries, they outline a progressive trade and investment law agenda
in 'Globalization Reimagined' that includes new ways to link trade with protection
for labour; measures to ensure that gains from trade are used to offset losses; new
rules that can protect foreign investments without hamstringing developing governments
or harming local communities; innovative procedures to allow developing countries
the freedom to try innovative growth strategies; and methods to cope with new products."
