The Max Planck Commentaries on World Trade Law explain the whole range of world trade law in seven individual article-by-article type commentaries. While the first volume (WTO – World Economic Order, World Trade Law (2006)) serves as a nutshell-type introduction to the WTO, the remaining six volumes focus on specific aspects of WTO law. The second volume (WTO – Institutions and Dispute Settlement (2006)) brings together the WTO institutional fundamentals and the whole dispute settlement. The third volume (WTO – Technical Barriers and SPS Measures (2007)) deals with the most controversial provisions on technical standards, protection of health and environment. The fourth volume (WTO – Trade Remedies (2008)) is devoted to the very specific area of anti-dumping, subsidies and safeguards. The fifth volume (WTO – Trade in Goods (2010)) comments on the substantial trade in good rules of the GATT/WTO. The sixth and seventh volume (WTO – Trade in Services (2008) and WTO – Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (2008)) deal with intellectual property rights and trade in services rules respectively.
