The first comprehensive effort to compile and consolidate verified and factual information on all disputes during the entire GATT 1947 period (1948-1995).
The two volumes offer insights into the evolution of dispute settlement under the GATT 1947, which served as the foundation for the Dispute Settlement Understanding created by the Marrakesh Agreement Establishing the WTO. The publication GATT Disputes: 1948-1995 provides verified and factual information on disputes brought by contracting parties to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT 1947) from 1948 to 1995, when the GATT was superseded by the World Trade Organization (WTO). Volume 1 provides a comprehensive overview of dispute settlement activities under the GATT 1947 and a one-page case summary for each of the 316 GATT disputes brought by contracting parties during this period. Volume 2 compiles documents containing GATT dispute settlement rules and procedures and other selected documents of interest.
An online dedicated database is currently under development. It will provide userfriendly access to all data compiled in the research for this publication.
