In terms of methodology, during the compilation process, the author consistently adhered to the guiding principles of combining theory with practice, normative analysis with empirical analysis, and economics, politics, and law. In terms of content, the book provides a review and critique of the application of international trade theory and policy measures in the context of international trade in services, with most of the cited literature and data being relatively recent materials from the mid-to-late 1990s to the present.
