ABSTRACT

In some way, special and differential treatment (S & D) managed to be a crucial characteristic of multiparty merchandising system during most of the period after the war. It was a huge struggle for the implementation of the rules regarding the set of consistent multiparty merchandising rights and responsibilities between various nations. Special and differential treatment in the current debate sometimes gives the intuition that some of the government beneficiaries are willing to brawl over this conflict once again. This urge may be due to disappointment that the systems in the developed countries are insensitive to the actual demands of developing nations. It may also reflect unwillingness or helplessness to debate, and take on in depth analysis and particularity, which is essential for a valuable result. The World Trade Organisation is a worldwide contract pledged by around 144 nations consisting of broadly varying priorities commanding over economical and financial features. The purpose of the study is to explore the concept of discrimination among developed, developing and less developed countries with respect to WTO trade regime.
