Some trade analysts have described the transition from the GATT to the WTO trading regime as ‘the most important event in recent world history’. These analysts claim that the WTO is the central international economic institution (Bierman et ah, 1996). Yet others have claimed that the WTO modestly extends GATT, rather than embodying substantive rules over governmental policies (Jackson, 1998, p. 1). Traditional theoretical accounts tend to advance the latter view.
