Produktbeschreibung
The trade principles of Western liberal democracies are at the core of international trade law regimes and standards. Are non-Western societiesadopting international standards, or are they adapting them to local norms and cultural values? This volume employs the paradigm of selective adaptation to explain the reception of international trade law in the Pacific Rim.
