In more than a decade since its founding, the WTO has become well-known as one of the world’s most powerful economic organizations, taking its place along side with the World Bank and International Monetary Fund (国际基金组织).
The system of global rules for international trade, however, dates back half a century to 1948 when the Geneva Agreement on Tariffs and Trade GATT (关贸总协定期) was founded after World War Ⅱ.
As time went by, it became clear that the GATT had two major drawbacks—the limited areas of trade it covers, and the lack of an effective system to settle disputes (争端).
After seven years of trade talks ending in 1994, the so-called Uruguay Round finally gave birth to the WTO which took the place of the GATT. It was completed with an effective system to settle disputes and now rules covering trade in services and intellectual property (知识产权).
Even after seven years of talks and 22, 500 pages of agreements, there were still problems, especially the difficult-to-deal-with areas of agriculture and services, which the member nations agreed to revise in 2000.
The WTO, with its head office in Geneva, has 136 members with 30 more waiting to join.
