Description

Diploma Thesis from the year 2006 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, grade: 1,0, University of Leipzig (Institut für Wirtschaftspolitik), language: English, abstract: In the prevailing paper, I will argue that the current institutional structure of the multilateral trade negotiations is the decisive factor that limits considerable progress in the liberalization of international agricultural markets. WTO members face a growing institutional complexity which does not allow for substantial liberalization steps. Rather, countries need to find alternative ways to improve their individual trade balance. My examinations will base on the insights of the New Institutional Theory (NIE), which puts its scientific interest on institutions. Since institutions serve as a direct interface of societal processes, including economical as well as political characteristics, its application provides an appropriate attempt to approach multilateral trade negotiations - a subject that indeed touches both areas.
