Abstract

The rules-based international trading system is under the greatest pressure since its inception in 1948 when the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) came into force. The rules of the GATT's successor, the World Trade Organization (WTO), are being flouted, and the Appellate Body of the dispute-settlement system is no longer functioning. Superpower rivalry is likely to prevent new multilateral trade negotiations leading to substantive agreements. In these circumstances, like-minded countries should begin negotiating plurilateral agreements at the WTO and within APEC.

希望永存：多边、世贸组织和亚太经合组织*

自 1948 年《关税及贸易总协定》（关贸总协定）生效以来，以规则为基础的国际贸易体系正面临着最大的压力。关贸总协定的继承者世界贸易组织（WTO）的规则正遭到蔑视，争端解决体系的上诉机构已不再发挥作用。超级大国之间的竞争很可能阻碍新的多边贸易谈判达成实质性协议。在这种情况下，志同道合的国家应开始在世贸组织和亚太经合组织内谈判诸边协议。

期刊介绍： Economic Papers is one of two journals published by the Economics Society of Australia. The journal features a balance of high quality research in applied economics and economic policy analysis which distinguishes it from other Australian journals. The intended audience is the broad range of economists working in business, government and academic communities within Australia and internationally who are interested in economic issues related to Australia and the Asia-Pacific region. Contributions are sought from economists working in these areas and should be written to be accessible to a wide section of our readership. All contributions are refereed.
