Doha Round

New and current trade round, similar to the other four (Dillon Round, Kennedy Round, Tokyo Round, and Uruguay Round), although this is through the WTO instead of the GATT. It started in November of 2001 and is scheduled to end by January 1, 2005.

One of the largest priorities of this round is the integration of poorer countries into the world economy. Other areas under discussion include all goods and services, tariffs, non-tariff measures, antidumping and subsidies, regional trade agreements, intellectual property, environment, and dispute settlement.
