bilaterals.org is a collaborative website to share information, critical analysis and strategies for action against bilateral trade and investment agreements. Bilateral treaties create new obligations, especially for developing countries, on a range of issues: privileges for foreign investors, market access for some agricultural products, deregulation of environmental laws, weak standards on labour rights, opening up of services and cultural sectors to foreign control, and ever stronger intellectual property rights regimes. They are used by countries like the US, Australia, Japan, Canada, New Zealand and the EU to get faster, deeper and more comprehensive commitments than is possible in a slow and fractious multilateral forum like the WTO.
bilaterals.org was launched in September 2004 by a number of activist research groups as an open and collective website. It contains news articles about ongoing negotiations, background studies on the implications of different trends and agreements, a treaty library, links, reports about people's mobilisations and a discussion forum. You are welcome to join and publish your own materials or documents you consider important to make available to others.
