The WTO and its Development Obligation: Prospects for Global Trade presents a sound argument in
favour of the WTO adhering to its long-standing development obligation. Ezeani goes further than merely
highlighting the problems of developing country integration, and also provides a comprehensive analysis of the
underlying factors that are preventing developing countries from making meaningful gains through participation in
global trade. She assesses the effectiveness of current 'development-based programmes of the WTO as well as the
Dispute Settlement Body (DSB), and stresses the importance for developing countries of recognising the potential
benefits of global trade. Beginning with the origins of organised global trade and concluding with pragmatic
solutions centred on both developing country and WTO action, Ezeani delves deep to challenge the application of
the early economic theory of comparative advantage, and the interpretation of development by the WTO, in the
contemporary global trade environment.
