Mainstreaming the right to development into the World Trade Organization

Since the end of the cold war, two main visions have underpinned the normative evolution of international order: the vision of human rights and humanity and that of economic globalization. Historically, the legal, institutional and policy cultures of international human rights law and of international trade law operated almost entirely in isolation from one another. At the same time, as a matter of international law, the international human rights system and the World Trade Organization (WTO) regime are both based primarily on treaty obligations. A large majority of States are signatories to both the core WTO treaties (the so-called Covered Agreements) and the main United Nations human rights instruments.
