  • Silvia Nenci

Abstract

The rise of the emerging southern economies - China, India, Brazil, and South Africa (CIBS) - as both economic and political actors, is having significant and far-reaching impact on the world economy. Notwithstanding the increasing amount of study and research, there are still important knowledge-gaps with respect to a range of likely consequences of the dynamism of the Southern Economies. One of these gaps concerns the implications for the WTO-multilateral trading system.
