Implications for UK Agriculture and Eu Agricultural Policy of Trade Liberalisation and the Wto Round
Author: Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Agriculture Committee
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780102431001
Category : Agriculture and state
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
The liberalisation of trade in agricultural products regulated through the World Trade Organisation is having a profound effect on the UK agricultural industry and on EU agricultural policy. The Committee believes that the WTO should not be transformed into a universal reform league if that puts at risk its ability to sustain its primary purpose as a rules based regulator of world trade agreements. The best way to assist small farms in the UK which find themselves under threat is through reform of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), and a gradual shift away from distorting production subsidies to a policy based on clear objectives for environmental protection and rural development.

Mid-Term Review of the Common Agriculture Policy
Author: Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780215007476
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
Following on from the Committee's earlier inquiry on the future of UK agriculture (HCP 550-I, ISBN 0215006100), this report examines the European Commission's proposals for the Mid-Term Review of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) in its wider international context (such as World Trade Organization (WTO) negotiations and EU enlargement); and considers the implications for the UK agricultural sector and agri-environmental policy. Overall, the report finds that the Commission's proposals to remove the link between agricultural production and subsidies are 'brave and radical', and notes that CAP reform should strengthen the EU's negotiating position in WTO agricultural trade liberalisation meetings. However, an assessment of the funding implications involved is still required, and the Commission needs to determine the extent to which it is prepared to let EU member states emphasise environmental or social aspects within the Rural Development Programmes.

Author: Charles Ackah
Publisher: IDRC
ISBN: 9988647360
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 258

Author: Anh-Nga Tran-Nguyen
Publisher: United Nations Publications
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 512
Book Description
Equal rights between men and women are enshrined as a fundamental human right in the UN Charter, and reflected in various internationally agreed instruments, such as the 1979 Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and the 1995 Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action. Although there has been notable progress in some areas, in most nations women are still at a disadvantage in terms of their role and position in the economic and political arenas.

Issues discussed include: economics of gender equality, international trade and development; multilateral negotiations on agriculture in developing countries; gender-related issues in the textiles and clothing sectors; international trade in services; gender and the TRIPS Agreement; the impact of WTO rules on gender equality; human rights aspects; fair trade initiatives; the role of IT in promoting gender equality, the Gender Trade Impact Assessment and trade reform.
