Abstract
Agriculture definitely is at the top of developmental issues that must be solved if there is to be a future beyond Doha. A new global trade regime, however, needs to go beyond agriculture and deal with the pressing issues of a global economy characterized by unevenness and inequality. Such an agenda would have to simultaneously address the re-establishing of the principle of multilateralism that is endangered not only by regional agreements but also by the desire of non-governmental organizations fighting for labour and environmental standards.
Résumé
L’article sert d’introduction au sujet sur lequel portent la plupart des articles réunis dans ce numéro. Après une présentation des différents points de vue rapportés en regard de l’échec de Doha, il souligne le besoin de résoudre le problème de l’agriculture pour aller plus avant. Nonobstant l’urgence de cette question, un régime post-Doha doit cependant aussi se pencher sur d’autres questions brûlantes du commerce global tel le rétablissement du principe de multilatéralisme qui est menacé non seulement par l’essor des accords régionaux mais aussi par la lutte des organisations non gouvernementales pour des standards de travail, les questions environnementales etc.
Zusammenfassung
Die Agrarpolitik gehört zweifellos zu den zentralen Problemen, die gelöst werden müssen, wenn es eine Zukunft nach Doha geben soll. Gleichzeitig muss eine neue globale Handelsordnung mehr enthalten und drängende Fragen wie die sich verschärfende internationale Ungleichheit behandeln. Dabei wäre auch das Prinzip des Multilateralismus zu bekräftigen, das nicht nur durch die verstärkte Tendenz zur Regionalisierung, sondern auch durch den Kampf von Nichtregierungsorganisationen für Arbeits- und Umweltstandards in Bedrängnis gerät.
