International Trade Law: A Comprehensive Textbook: Remedies (Volume 3)

International Trade Law has been thoroughly revised in its fifth edition, building upon the global successes of its predecessor editions. Now in four user-friendly volumes, the textbook allows for the option of a comprehensive, two-semester course, or any combination of one-semester courses. New chapters include discussions on trade and climate change, animal rights, and Indian trade law and policy. Professors who are interested in reviewing the book for course use may request an electronic version by following the link at the bottom of the page. If the book is adopted, a hard copy will be provided.
There has been more disruption in the world of international trade law since the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election than at any time since the Second World War. Not only does this Textbook cover all existing U.S. FTAs, but it also addresses the updates associated with the USMCA (NAFTA 2.0) and the Sino-American Trade War. Simply put, trade is increasingly more about regional and bilateral deals, and about national level measures concerning customs law and national security (such as the Section 232 steel and aluminum actions and sanctions against Iran). Competitor books on international trade law are too narrow, because they focus only on multilateral matters. The field is about far more than the WTO. The demise of the WTO Appellate Body, plus other post-2016 developments, underscore the reality that trade is a far broader, deeper field than ever before. Only this Textbook pays due regard to these new realities, and does so in a clearly organized, cogently analyzed, and elegantly written manner.
Each volume of International Trade Law is available individually, or a complete set can be purchased here.
Testimonials:
"In my experience, few books set a first rate standard for students and teachers alike. This textbook does. Its interdisciplinary, non-western orientation, coupled with its coverage of time-honored precepts and contemporary issues, is a novel and timely synthesis."—Jagdish N.

Mavroidis, Edwin B Parker Professor of Law, Columbia Law School
"This Textbook masterfully covers the field of International Trade Law. Especially impressive is the seriousness with which it takes the linkages between trade and national security. From crafting trade sanctions and export controls to contesting state-sponsored industrial policy and misappropriation of critical technology, from using free trade agreements to complement defense strategies to addressing extremism through poverty-alleviating trade policies, it's all here. Appealing to readers who come to this field with diverse backgrounds and interests is not easy. This Textbook, logically organized and elegantly written, does so with ease."—Matthew C. Waxman, Liviu Librescu Professor of Law, Faculty Chair, National Security Law Program, Columbia Law School
"Raj Bhala has done it again. In his trademark style, he has authored another textbook that is a superb "go to" reference for seasoned trade practitioners and, for students, an approachable introduction that covers the legal foundations and cross-disciplinary dimensions of the field. The Textbook effortlessly moves from elementary to sophisticated topics and will appeal as much to new students of international trade as to seasoned experts. The quality of the writing is typical Bhala: clear, efficient and elegant. Perhaps best of all, this Textbook is authentically cosmopolitan, of appeal to readers in Canada and around the globe."—Paul M. Lalonde, Partner, Dentons Canada LLP, Toronto
