Determining the place and role of development in the WTO's architecture is increasingly unavoidable. Although members have raised the issue in the Doha Round, no reasoned methodology has emerged for deciding how development concerns should be addressed at the WTO and in relation to other areas of international regulation. Rather, various issues are raised to forestall a real consideration of the role of development in the multilateral trading regime. This chapter provides a coherent mapping of the challenges most often raised. Starting with an assessment of what development provisions currently achieve, it widens the inquiry to examine how bilateralism and regionalism affect the framework for development at the WTO and how the broadening agenda of WTO regulation shape the content of development provisions.
Keywords: regionalism, multilateralism, south/south trade, capacity, policy space, international organizations
