WTO體制下公共道德例外條款研究
[Abstract]:Exceptional clauses play a very important role in the WTO system. Many agreements under the WTO system stipulate exceptional clauses. Among them, two important agreements, GATT (hereinafter referred to as GATT) and GATS (hereinafter referred to as GATS), list special clauses to stipulate that specific circumstances can be violated. The first exception is the exception clause of "public morality", which shows the importance of the exception. This paper uses the methods of historical analysis, case analysis and comparative analysis to analyze the theory and application of the exception clause of public morality under the WTO system. Conduct research.
The first part of the thesis introduces the formulation and development of the exceptional clauses of public morality under the WTO system.Before the establishment of WTO, many international treaties have chosen moral exceptions as one of the exceptional exceptions to international treaties.This can be said to be the background of the publication of the exceptional clauses of public morality in WTO.After that, GATT and GATS are two important agreements of WTO. In contrast to the active incorporation of this clause, it has not been applied and clarified for more than 50 years after its incorporation, but the public ethics clause still plays a more active role in international trade law.
Since the key to the correct understanding and application of the exceptional clause of public morality lies in the interpretation of the connotation of "public morality", the second part of the paper sets out the interpretation of the clause separately, and interprets and defines the meaning of the term "public morality" by means of the treaty interpretation method provided for in the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties. In addition, since the concept of "public order" has been added to Article 14A of GATS, the relationship between "public morality" and "public order" has also been discussed in this chapter.
The third part of the paper combines two specific cases that cite exceptions to public morality, namely, the United States-Measures Affecting Cross-border Gambling and Gambling Services (hereinafter referred to as the "American Gambling Case") and China-Measures Affecting Trade Rights and Distribution Services of Audio-visual Products for Publications and Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as "China"). The United States Gambling Case is the first case to invoke the exceptional clause of public morality under the WTO system. The case establishes the criteria for analyzing the exceptional clause of public morality. In this case, the public moral exception clause of Article 20a of GATT is used as the defense of the defendant's measure. Although it has not succeeded, it is still a typical case to study the public moral exception. Established standards of review.
The fourth part of the thesis lists some problems that exist in the analysis and application of the exceptional clause of public morality, mainly including: when the WTO Dispute Settlement Body analyzes the exceptional clause of public morality, one of the key problems in the application of this clause is what is the meaning of "public morality" and how to determine it. At the same time, a sequential "double-test" analytical method rigidly divides the public moral exception clause into two parts, which violates the principle of treaty interpretation; moreover, the "necessity" test review criteria applied by the WTO Dispute Settlement Body are very strict but uncertain.
The last part of the paper puts forward some suggestions on the attitude and strategy that China should adopt towards the public moral exception clause in the future.
