The current international trade legal system presents a typical fragmented structure, in which the centrality of the World Trade Organization (WTO) is collapsing, while diverse international trade agreements proliferate without coordination. This fragmented structure reflects the ongoing historical changes of the international trade order. Driven by the information technology revolution and the construction of global value chains, the current international trade market is deeply integrated, leading to changes in the structures of State power and placing pressure on the development of domestic society. As such, the international trade legal system needs to fulfill two needs through the fragmented structure. On the one end, it needs the constitutional function of the WTO to maintain a stable multilateral trade order. On the other end, it needs the diversity of trade agreements to harness the complex conflicts of the current trade order, including the political distrust driven by the changing power structure, and the domestic social conflict driven by the deeper integration of the trade market. When participating in international trade governance, China needs to avoid the trap of political attack, to have a nuanced understanding of the fundamental conflict of the new international trade order, and harness the fragmented structure to promote the gradual evolution of the international trade legal system. |
