The contribution addresses some of the challenges associated with the notion of trade in services against the background of an experience of roughly two decades of trade liberalization in services at the international level. The contribution focuses predominantly on the WTO’s General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS), but also discusses aspects of services trade liberalization in bilateral and regional trade agreements. Among others, the contribution aims to reconstruct and critically assess the notions of services, trade in services, barriers to trade in services and liberalisation of trade in services. It also discusses the state of the current services negotiations in the context of the so-called Doha Development Agenda (DDA) and developments in GATS dispute settlement. |
