国务院发展研究中心研究员李健近日为本刊撰文,分析WTO和GSP(普遍优惠制协议)对于世界贸易的影响。李健指出:真正对世界贸易增长具有直接巨大推动作用的是,普遍优惠制协议(GSP),即发达国家单方面给予发展中国家贸易优惠协议。GATT/WTO对国际贸易的促进作用十分有限,因为一个国家的世贸组织成员身份,对整个世贸组织的贸易政策影响微乎其微。这是美国加利福尼亚大学经济学家安德鲁.若斯最近提出的观点。 Li Jian, a researcher at the State Council Development Research Center, recently wrote an article about the impact of WTO and GSP on the world trade. Li Jian pointed out: What truly directly contributes to the growth of world trade is the Generalized GSP (GSP), in which developed countries unilaterally grant developing countries trade concessions. The promotion of GATT / WTO on international trade is very limited because the membership of a country as a WTO has minimal impact on the trade policies of the entire WTO.
