How can the free trade mandate of the World Trade Organization (WTO) be reconciled with the concerns of labor, environmental, and consumer groups? What is meant by the word free in the term free trade? Does free mean no restrictions on the flow of labor, capital, goods, services, and technology? Should free trade be limited by other concerns such as local disruption? Should local cultural concerns be a limitation on the nonregulation of trade? How can theWTO dispute resolution and enforcement process be reconciled with a country’s assertion of national sovereignty over its national laws and regulations?
