Abstract
IT IS ONLY FOUR YEARS since the final resolution of the so-called Uruguay round of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), but the machinery that drives the world trade talks, now re-christened as the World Trade Organisation (WTO), is already cranking into gear for the next season of protracted discussions. The name may have changed, but once again, the major trading blocks are set to carve up world trade amongst themselves for the next century. Such is the time-lag attached to the international policy stage, however, that the losers from the 1993 resolution—those countries from the South who are dependent upon international markets for the sale of their primary commodities—are still awaiting the full consequences of this official organisation of inequality.
