Launched on 29 September, the book deals with the 267 Regional Trade Agreements (RTAs) notified to the WTO and currently in force, and with the notification of an RTA between Japan and Mongolia earlier this year; all WTO members are now party to at least one RTA.
The intention of the publication served to improve the understanding of what RTAs are doing and also what the WTO is. It is understood that the chapters were first presented at a seminar at the WTO in September 2014 and they have been developed since then, drawing on comments from members.
The book is available from the WTO bookshop
