The relevance of the article is as follows: on the one hand, the importance of sanitary and phytosanitary measures as an integrating category, a category that stands at the crossroads of agrarian, environmental, social and international policies is not yet fully realised and therefore significantly underestimated; on the other hand, at the present stage, it is impossible to ignore the objective growth of the role and importance of non-governmental organisations in regulating the relations in the field of sanitary and phytosanitary measures.

AbstractPrivate standards have increasingly become a contentious issue in the multilateral trading system. The ever increasing number of sector-specific standards developed by businesses, in particular in the food market, may have significant implications for developing countries in terms of market access. Some countries see private food standards as a particular form of non-tariff barriers.

This distinction can be difficult to discern, particularly since different communities have different levels of tolerance for risk, which leads to varying national regulatory decisions.

Until recently, the issue of regionalization was only superficially addressed in both practice and scholarship compared to other provisions of the WTO Sanitary and Phytosanitary Agreement.

Thus, Article 6 establishes an important right of the Members to ensure access to other Members’ markets for products originating in disease-free areas.

Abstract:
AbstractThe standard of review applied by WTO decision-makers in disputes under the Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) Measures Agreement plays a critical role in determining the scope of SPS risk regulatory authority afforded WTO Members by governing the degree to which such measures must be science-based. The standard of review question in SPS jurisprudence finds resonances in international environmental legal adjudication of highly technical disputes, as well as in comparative law concerning judicial review of science-based risk regulation in the United States and European Union.

Abstract:
Free Trade has always been highly contested, but both the arguments about it and the treaties that regulate it have changed dramatically since the Second World War. Under the 1947 General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) regime, objections to free trade were essentially economic, and tariffs were a nation state's primary means of protecting its interests. However, by the early 1970s, tariffs had been substantially reduced, and the imposition and removal of non-tariff barriers that reflected a wide range of domestic concerns about the protection of health, safety, and the environment have
