| Abstract: | The following article concerns itself with the accession of new Members to the World Trade Organization (WTO). On the theoretical level the authors investigate the relationship between international rule making, the implementation of rules, and the behaviour of the State at a time of global market integration. In practical terms the research examines the legal provisions, the corresponding procedural steps of the WTO accession process and the anticipated benefits of the WTO membership. The following research note makes an argument that WTO accession reflects a fundamental dilemma of the contemporary State in coming to terms with a globalizing economy, in struggling, that is, to become a globally competitive State. |
