Enforcement & Law-Making of the EU Trade Policy

The digital open access volume is the first publication realized within the Jean Monnet Module “Reforming the Global Economic Governance: The EU for SDGs in International Economic Law (Re-Globe)”, coordinated by Professor Elisa Baroncini (see the Re-Globe website at the link https://site.unibo.it/reglobe/en). It presents the approach of the European Union to the reform processes for new substantive and procedural rules for the governance of the global economy, and the EU articulated and innovative strategy to contribute, through its trade policy, to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN 2030 Agenda.

The e-book therefore considers the role of the EU within the multilateral and regional dispute settlement mechanisms of International Economic Law, the participation of civil society in the definition, implementation and enforcement of the EU trade policy tools, and the promotion of the principle of sustainable development through the new generation of EU Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and the proposed EU autonomous instruments like the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). The volume devotes particular attention to the EU / China relations and the highly interesting case law developed within the EU FTAs systems dealing with trade and sustainability complaints.
