| Tartalmi kivonat: | The multilateral regulatory framework of international trade driven by universal inspirations, as created by the GATT and the WTO, was based upon the principle of equal treatment as implemented by the legal technique of the most favoured nation treatment. However, this principle has progressively lost its importance and has been sidelined, a process that can be termed as the decline of the principle of equal treatment. At the same time world trade has become more and more liberalized both in multilateral and in bilateral or regional frameworks. The scope of regulations progressively extended to new areas, such as services, intellectual property,, competition, investment, environment, labour and social regulations, human rights. Due to these and to other factors – like the fundamental changes in the economic and a geopolitical landscape of the world - the development of the multilateral regulation of the world trade has come to a standstill and all the efforts aiming at the relaunching of the process essentially failed. The exhaustion of the multilateral system was the main reason of the spreading of bilateral and regional free trade agreements. This resulted in the progressive fragmentation and particularisation of the once multilateral, indeed, universal trading system. As a result of this „competitve liberalisation”,the free trade agreements now cover a substantial part of world trade and play a particularly important role in the trade relations of the European Union. Ongoing negotiations on free trade agreements have become the subject of heated political and ideologically motivated debates and are instrumentalized for political purposes, in particular in case of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Parnership (TTIP). While more openness , transparency and discussion are welcome, the idea of free – and fairly regulated – trade should be preserved and strengthened. The author firmly believes that trade is needed („navigare necesse est”), it is good and free – and fairly regulated – trade is even better. |
