Reviews

'Power dynamics and competing interests in international trade negotiations are a vexing problem at the heart of global and regional trade agendas. The multi-regional and comparative cases in the volume allow a nuanced understanding of the intricacies of negotiations among asymmetrical trade partners. It is an important contribution to the debate on the architecture of global economic institutions, as well as the future of the global trade agenda.' Jose RaAl Perales, The George Washington University, USA 'Given that almost all of New Zealand's trade negotiations are with larger partners (only Brunei is smaller), this book on asymmetry and how to cope with it is timely... it offers credible examples from the 21st century... A timely reminder of enduring global political-economic imbalances.' New Zealand International Review 'The international political economy framework employed in this book is paired with a trade policy practitioner's level of detailed knowledge of the world trading regime, making for a book that is both theoretically interesting and empirically satisfying. ... This book is a good contribution to international political economy analyses of the world trade regime.' Political Studies Review
