What this website is about
This website focuses on the professional interests of Robert D. Anderson, part-time academic, independent researcher, consultant, former WTO senior staff member and former staff member of the Canadian Competition Bureau. These comprise:
-
International government procurement policy (centering on the WTO Agreement on Government Procurement and related regional and bilateral trade agreements);
-
Procurement reforms in emerging and developing economies;
-
International dimensions of competition policy;
-
The relationship of competition policy to government procurement;
-
The relationship of competition policy and intellectual property rights; and
-
The history, rationale for and future of multilateralism.
NB: this website does NOT attempt to track the latest developments concerning WTO case law or negotiations. For that, I recommend the International Economic Law and Policy Blog (https://worldtradelaw.typepad.com/) and the website of the WTO itself (www.wto.org).
