IV.The Future of Multilateralism  The threat of bilateralism and plurilateralism (free trade areas, … )  Divide between the South and North – uneven distribution of trade benefits between developed and developing countries  What more can be traded? Agriculture, service, …  The limit of WTO as a ruling body for world trade – Can WTO monitor the environmental standards, labor standards, competition laws … ?  The limit of US as hegemony – war against terrorism, …  The rise of China – the return of Empire
