SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AND THE PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS – FUNDAMENTAL OBJECTIVES OF THE MARRAKESH AGREEMENT CONCERNING THE CREATION OF THE WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION
Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2012, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
One of the objectives of the multilateral international trade system created within the World Trade Organization is the sustainable economic development, taking into account the need to protect the environment. For this purpose, the lawful rules created through the Marrakech Agreement and its annex agreements allow WTO member states, in certain situations, to derogate from the general obligations referring to trade, to which they have to adhere, by adopting measures meant to protect the exhaustible natural resources. This article analyzes the conditions in which such measures can be adopted, through derogation from the general obligations concerning international trade.
