Abstract: The success of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) trade talks held in Cancun, Mexico in September 2003, was very important. It could have reshaped the world's trading system by reducing barriers to trade. Such reshaping would have raised global incomes by $2.8 trillion over the next decade. But hopes were dashed as Cancun fizzled out due to the deep differences between the developed and the developing nations. |
