Research On Technical Barriers To Trade Agreement

In order to promote the free development of international trade, tariffbarriers and non-tariff barriers have already declined significantly. Technical barriers to trade (TBT) is very important in asserting the reasonable benefits, such as the mankind's life and health, environmental protection, etc. But it's becoming the new tool to protect trade because of its flexibility, complexity and concealment. The flourishing nation is the main source ground of technical barriers to trade, and most export products of our country face the restriction of technical barriers to trade. So, we should set up the research to TBT and building up our system of technical barriers to trade.The thesis consists of four parts as well as introduction and ending, nearly 40,000 words altogether. At first, the article carried on the detailed analysis towards the basic knowledge and the agreements in WTO involving TBT, then from two angles of static state (rules of agreement) and dynamic state (performance of agreement) to analyze the agreement on TBT. And put forward suggestions to reply TBT from two levels of China export and import finally.Introduction. This part introduces the purpose of the selection of subject and elaborates the author's writing way of thinking.Part â…  -Review of TBT. Be a form of non-tariff measures, technical barriers to trade will exert greater influence upon international trade. Someone predict that it will replace tariff barrier and become the most in 21Cs. It influences world economics in two ways. On one hand, it plays a positive role in shaping world economy and international trade. As such, it stands ready guarantee consumer health of all countries and people's life security. On the other hand, it is utilized by ideological trend of trade protection and then becomes serious barriers to the development of world economy and international trade. The article commencesfrom the definition of technical barriers to trade, makes a detailed introduction about its expressions, holds its development trend in the future, understands relevant agreements in WTO, and establishes foundation in building up our system of technical barriers to trade.Part 11-The main contents of the agreement on TBT. The creation of the agreement on TBT is the demand that WTO adjusts to the development of international trade, and resolves the new problem appearing in the international trade. Its aim is to guild each member to establish, adopt and carry out the proper technical barriers to trade, encourage the adoption of international standards and attestation, and prevent obstruction on international trade in implementing these measures. The agreement includes two parts of text and enclosure. It formulates concrete demands about technical regulation, standard and attestation, and makes it further open, unify and transparent The agreement also formulates the special treatment of the developing country, contributing to raising the product quality and international competition abilities. But we also should see that at the same time, "escape clause" in the agreement is easily be exploited by all countries.Partlll-Analyses of the performance of the agreement on TBT. Though the agreement on TBT have made great efforts to eliminate unreasonable barriers, and rise an aggressive function to the development of the international trade, it does not build up a set of powerful guarantee measures, also does not draw up practical methods to remove unreasonable barriers, that is to say, the condition of its actual operation is not good. The flourishing nations use technical barriers to trade to achieve the purpose of trade protection that it is the most reasonable, most concealment and most valid method. It has particularly important realistic meaning for our trade development after acceding WTO that draw lessons from American, European Union, etc, understand their concrete provisions and way of doings and get enlightenment from them.PartrV-The agreement on TBT and China Be the new member of WTO, our country faces more and more restrictions and influences of technical barriers to trade. So, this part considers the countermeasures from two aspects. In the export trade, the government should work hard to construct trade environment that it is fair and health, and can promote economic development, lead and help the local business enterprise aggressively to raise the level of product, service and management to reply TBT abroad; the business enterprise should strengthen the understanding of the rules in the agreement on TBT, and draw up the concrete strategy aiming at each profession. In the import trade, our country should draw lessons from the flourishing nations and further perfect our system of technical barriers to trade.Ending. It is a brief conclusion of the former four parts. The creation of technical barriers to trade comes from the progress of science and technology, and the increase of environmental protection consciousness to a large extent. So, we can say that technical barriers to trade open a new door to guide the further development of science and technology and beautify the environment for existence. We will be had to walk coming after the progress of science and technology, economics development, environmental protection and the balance of ecology. Be the biggest developing country, we should have confidence to take the lead in this international trend.
