Abstract

The Geneva-based World Trade Organization (WTO) is essentially a forum where countries engage in an ’institutionalized’ tussle for access to one another’s markets. This mercantilist behaviour sees governments bargaining for access to export markets, even as they seek to protect their own markets from imports. Since governments cannot expect greater access to foreign markets, without giving, in exchange, others access to their own markets, the WTO negotiations boil down to a give-and-take in products and markets.
