Characteristics of the Book: 1. The foreign-related economic law and WTO international rules explained in this book do not simply list legal texts but instead select key points for compilation, both faithfully reflecting the core content of the legal texts and appropriately interpreting the legal rules, presented in fluent and easy-to-understand legal English. To avoid rapid obsolescence, the foreign-related economic regulations introduced in this book are up to 2001. 2. The book was compiled against the backdrop of China's entry into the WTO. Entering the WTO means China's integration into economic globalization, with domestic markets further opening, especially in the three major areas of goods trade, services trade, and intellectual property rights. Therefore, the development of foreign economic and trade requires an understanding of China's foreign-related economic legal system that regulates these fields. After China's entry into the WTO, it will fully implement the WTO agreement rules, and China's current foreign-related economic legislation is also being comprehensively revised, supplemented, and improved. Therefore, it is highly necessary to explain and interpret the core content of the WTO agreements and present them in fluent legal English.
