Moving People to Deliver Services cover

This book presents the economics, law, and politics of temporary migration. Today, the WTO is dealing with an issue that lies at the interface of two major challenges: trade liberalization and international migration. The book provides economic and legal analysis of these issues, bringing together economists, regulators, negotiators, and private sector stake-holders to illuminate the WTO negotiations and enhance public understanding of thsi important but under-explored area.

... offers readers a comprehensive analysis both of where things currently stand and of the key policy challenges that attempts at promoting greater doses of labour mobility in a trade policy setting are likely to encounter ... the volume fills an important - and hitherto unoccupied - niche in the burgeoning services literature. It should prove essential reading to all of those interested in seeing the Doha Round meet its development promise in the services field. World Trade Review
