Reviews

'Professor Shadikhodjaev has written a must-have reference book for anyone who cares about the role of governments in the global economy and world trading system.' Julia Ya Qin, Wayne State University and Peking University International Law Institute 'This informative book describes what forms of industrial policy are consistent with the rules of the World Trade Organization. The book is densely written and thick with legal terminology, but it is valuable as an authoritative reference work. In addition to analyzing WTO policies, Shadikhodjaev provides a useful catalog of areas where the WTO's rules are ambiguous and suggests how they might be clarified and improved.' Richard N. Cooper, Foreign Affairs
