The book is organized around four sub-themes. The first deals with international organizations, particularly the WTO and GATT, and provides insights into the evolution of international institutions through the lens of negotiation processes. The second deals with negotiated norms in the international political economy, such as notions of fairness, legitimacy, equality and efficiency. The third examines the process whereby developing countries have attempted to exercise a voice in the international political economy, focusing on their negotiation strategies and bargaining coalitions. The final section examines the cases of Brazil and India in trade, but also compares their negotiating behavior in other international regimes. Thus, while the first two sub-themes are primarily about structure, the last two are about agency.
