Rousseau y la justicia de la Organización Mundial del Comercio

This article takes Rousseau’s proposition that a norm is just if everyoneagrees with it unanimously, and applies it to the World Trade Organization’s(WTO) law. Since WTO law is adopted and amended with everyMember’s involvement and consensus, it can be inferred that normativelyit is just. Moreover, some factual doubts regarding the adoptionand amendment are dealt with and finally rejected, as well as certaincircumstances that could prevent deducing a norm’s justice. Moreover,Rousseau’s notions also allow us to highlight some interesting aspectsof WTO dispute settlement. In sum, it is possible to infer that WTO lawis just according to the criteria set out by Rousseau
