Global Textiles and Clothing Trade ─ Trade Policy Perspectives

Ghori (law, Bond U., Australia) presents his PhD dissertation for the University of New South Wales, research for which he began just after the quotas on trade in textiles and clothing were abolished in early 2005. He concentrates on the law and policy issues associated with the international textile and clothing trade, leaving the economics and social theories to other scholars. He covers the history of regulation in the textiles and clothing trade, the transition towards liberalized trade, issues affecting the trade, case studies after the Agreement on Textiles and Clothing expired, assessing the use of safeguards and anti-dumping as trade remedy measures, and the way forward.
