T.R.A.D.E. Working Papers 14

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This paper discusses different negotiating strategies and how they may be used by developing countries in the context of the current WTO negotiations on trade in services. It is designed to stimulate thought amongst developing countries on preferred approaches to services negotiations, and particularly negotiating strategies that may be used in the run-up to the Cancun WTO Ministerial Meeting. More broadly, the paper encourages researchers in academic, civil society and intergovernmental organizations to engage in more detailed analyses of negotiating strategies and dynamics, especially as they relate to trade in services.
