Obchodní režimy pro rozvojové země
Obchodní a rozvojovou politiku EU představuje sdělení z ledna 2012 nazvané „Obchod, růst a rozvoj“. Tato politika se zaměřuje na země, které pomoc potřebují nejvíce. V případě nejméně rozvinutých zemí se i nadále uplatňuje všeobecný systém preferencí a režim „Vše kromě zbraní“, zatímco v případě zemí AKT, které nepatří mezi ty nejméně rozvinuté, bylo preferenční zacházení nahrazeno dohodami o hospodářském partnerství, které zahrnují také kapitolu o rozvoji.

The EU Banana Regime: Evolution and Implications of its Recent Changes
The study first surveys the key issues resulting from the long banana dispute at the WTO. It distinguishes 3 phases in the attempt by the EC to design an EU-wide and WTO-compatible banana import regime: the first (1993-1999) in which the first regime applicable to all EU member countries was introduced and challenged in WTO, and the first modifications made with changes to the methods for delivery of import licenses; the second phase (1999-2005) when the future regime was negotiated and the transition ...
A snapshot of the banana trade: Who gets what?
With the “Agreement of Geneva” the dispute about the banana imports over 15 years seems to come to an end. The liberalisation caused by this agreement will have a substantial impact on the international banana market.
