Resumen
GARCIA-MATAMOROS, Laura Victoria. THE DOHA ROUND FOR DEVELOPMENT EIGHT YEARS AFTER: FROM GREAT PROPOSALS TO MODEST AGREEMENTS. Int. Law: Rev. Colomb. Derecho Int. [online]. 2010, n.16, pp.213-258. ISSN 1692-8156.
This article explores how the World Trade Organization, WTO, has understood its role in contributing to development and particularly in its role in the right to development. This last is conceived as a mechanism which all countries but particularly those in development and the least developed can participate in a fair and equitable way in the economic benefits of trade. In this sense what has happened in the WTO is analyzed, having particular emphasis on the results of the Doha Round (November 9-13, 2001, Doha, Qatar). The object of the article is to demonstrate that, despite important and sensible themes being incorporated which will contribute to the equilibrium of commercial relations among States, in the course of negotiations great objectives found themselves set aside in order to reach agreements of technically specific and limited agreements. Despite this the article defends a multilateral role for the WTO as an institution well suited for the advancement of a system manifesting equilibrium.
