中国运用WTO争端解决机制的回顾与评析

Review and Analysis of the Chinese Use of the WTO Dispute Settlement Mechanism

自中国2001年加入世贸组织以来,中国的对外贸易迅速发展,与此同时,与其他成员国的贸易摩擦也随之增加。中国作为争端方参与了世贸组织31起案件,涉及22项争端。根据WTO法的要求,目前我国共清理了3000多部法律、法规、规章,并且修改与制定了相关进出口法律法规,对我国的贸易体制和相关贸易政策进行全面的调整,在法制建设方面取得了长足进步。但是,由于入世之初对世贸组织规则不完全了解就全盘接受,影响了中国在权利实施方面的能力。此外,我国在法律、法规制定过程中与WTO规则仍有冲突之处。因此,本文旨在总结成功经验、分析不足之处,对中国如何更好的利用争端解决机制提出建议。
