THE RELATION BETWEEN THE OBJECTIVE OF WTO AND ECONOMIC RIGHTS
Abstract: WTO Members
are obliged to
provide trade rules
and mechanism conducive
for their citizens
to conduct economy activities across frontier in order to pursue their
economic interests. This obligation is based on economic right that is granted
in their national constitutions. When
the WTO Members implement its obligation
under the WTO Agreements, they need to consider economic right as the main reason to involve
in WTO. It is thus necessary to analyse the relation between the objective of WTO
Agreements and economic rights, in order to seek the clarity of the primary
intention of WTO Members to conduct international trade under the WTO
Agreements. To this end, this article attempt to prove that there is a relation
between WTO Objective and economic right in order to urge the WTO Members to
imply the WTO Obligation based on economic rights that is granted in their constitutions.
