Doha
Round Briefing Series
The Doha
Round Briefing Series intends to serve as a guide to the multilateral
WTO negotiations under the Doha Round, started in late 2001-early
2002. In thirteen “executive summaries,” we offer a
progress report on each of the separate negotiation groups. They
are written for the non-expert with a strong interest in trade
policy and negotiations.
Developments
since the fourth Ministerial Conference (February 2003), Vol.1
Each summary sets out the negotiating mandate, offers a brief
background and then provides an account of what took place in
the negotiating groups in the course of 2002.
