Abstract

This chapter focuses on the disciplines on export restrictions found in the WTO agreements as well as relevant jurisprudence by WTO panels and the Appellate Body in general and in particular in the context of export restrictions on natural resources. In addition, the wider impact of export restrictions is examined in the areas of sustainable development, food security, and environmental protection. The chapter also explores alternative approaches and suggestions for increasing the regulation of export restrictions, found in accession protocols of some recently acceded WTO Members, regional trade agreements, negotiating proposals in the context of the Doha Round and G20 negotiations, and academic literature.
