It comes at the halfway point in the administration's first term, on the eve of the signing of a revised North American trade agreement, and at the height of a tit-for-tat tariff escalation between the United States and its major trading partners. It comes at a moment when the future of the multilateral trading system conceived in the second half of the twentieth century seems unclear, with the possibility of its decline or eclipse now very real. And it addresses critical questions concerning the impact of globalization on major economies with differently oriented market structures. In one form or another, each of the essays in this collection responds to these and related issues at this crucial juncture. The ten contributors to this Symposium have spent many years participating in and observing the development of trade law as practitioners and as academics. They have contributed to the practical workings and intellectual evolution of international economic policy both in the United States and abroad. Their essays highlight the achievements, shortcomings, challenges, changing narratives, legal innovations, economic consequences, and social repercussions of recent developments in trade. The authors first examine the World Trade Organization (WTO), which, despite the failure of the Doha Round, remains the central institution in international trade law and policy. It has dominated international trade lawmaking and trade law scholarship for the last twenty years. Alongside T Associate Professor of Law, University of Miami School of Law. TT Professor of Law, Yale Law School. The authors wish to thank the many contributors who have made the Symposium possible and the terrific Yale Journal ofInternational Law editorial team, particularly Sebastian Bates, Varun Char, Jessica Laird, Michelle Li, and Chris Zheng. Thanks are also due to the Oscar M. Ruebhausen Fund at Yale Law School for financial support. All errors are the authors' responsibility.
