Developing countries make up the majority of the membership of the World Trade Organization. Many developing countries believe
that the welfare gains that were supposed to ensue from the establishment of the WTO and the results of the Uruguay Round
remain largely unachieved. Coming on the heels of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the ongoing Doha Development Round, launched
in that Middle Eastern city in the fall of 2001, is now on 'life support'. It was inaugurated with much fanfare as a means
of addressing the difficulties faced by developing countries within the multilateral trading system. Special and differential
treatment provisions in the WTO agreement in particular are the focus of much discussion in the ongoing round, and voices
for change are multiplying because of widespread dissatisfaction with the effectiveness, enforceability, and implementation
of those special treatment provisions.
