Developing Countries in the Multilateral Trading System: Prospects of the Doha Round
Obenbergerová, Linda ; Hnát, Pavel (advisor) ; Stuchlíková, Zuzana (referee)
In connection with the process of globalization, the importance of international trade increases not only as means of gaining welfare but as a way to solve problems. The World Trade Organization (WTO) claimed this approach in 2001 through a new trade negotiation round, the Doha Development Agenda (DDA). Within DDA the WTO pledged to improve the conditions of participation of the developing countries in the multilateral trading system. Not after nine years of negotiation the round is heading to its conclusion and questions concerning the fulfilment of the development aspect are emerging. The presented thesis aims to evaluate the success of the integration of developing countries into the multilateral trading system and how the WTO contributes to it.

The Doha Development Agenda
Obenbergerová, Linda ; Němečková, Tereza (advisor) ; Řehořová, Veronika (referee)
As the globalization goes further, the importance of international trade increases as well, not only as an instrument of reaching welfare but as a way to solve problems, too. The World Trade Organization (WTO) tries to put this approach into effect by means of liberalization. The current round of multilateral negotiations at the WTO that was launched in November 2001 in Qatar's capital Doha was to focus on developing countries. That is why it is usually called the Doha Development Agenda (DDA). The opponents claim, that the aspect of development is not strong enough, because developed countries do not want to make concessions (the main topic of this round are agricultural subsidies, harshly defended by the developed countries). The issue is the length of the round and constant postponing of the deadline to conclude DDA or even the absence of a credible classification of members according to their development phase. The original goal of this round lying in improvement of developing countries' situation in world trade is not being fulfilled and remains for the eights year almost unchanged.

Current political issues of international trade related to the development of sub-Saharan Africa
Rejtharová, Denisa ; Volenec, Otakar (advisor) ; Kochan, Jan (referee)
The thesis deals with processes that are under way on the international political scene focused on bringing about change in international trade rules. The aim is to analyze to what extent are taken into account interests and development needs of sub-Saharan Africa. Examination of links between international trade on one hand, and development and poverty alleviation on the other hand, has emerged as one of the top issues of development studies. They consider a more substantial integration of sub-Saharan Africa countries into flows of international trade as one of the forms of efficient support to the African development efforts. Actually, two key trade negotiations are taking place -- the Doha Development Agenda under the auspices of the World Trade Organisation, and the Economic Partnership Agreements negotiations between the European Union and the ACP countries. The negotiations have proven to be politically sensible and up to now have failed in reaching an agreement. The present thesis seeks, therefore, to explore the reasons for the failure.
