THE RELATION BETWEEN THE OBJECTIVE OF WTO AND ECONOMIC RIGHTS

Abstract: WTO  Members  are  obliged  to  provide  trade  rules  and  mechanism  conducive  for  their  citizens  to conduct economy activities across frontier in order to pursue their economic interests. This obligation is based on economic right that is granted in their national constitutions.  When the WTO Members implement its obligation  under the WTO Agreements, they need to consider  economic right as the main reason to involve in WTO. It is thus necessary to analyse the relation between the objective of WTO Agreements and economic rights, in order to seek the clarity of the primary intention of WTO Members to conduct international trade under the WTO Agreements. To this end, this article attempt to prove that there is a relation between WTO Objective and economic right in order to urge the WTO Members to imply the WTO Obligation based on economic rights that is granted in their constitutions.
