Zusammenfassung

Koalitionen in der Uruguay-Runde. - Die Verfasser beschreiben die Koalitionen von EntwicklungslÄndern wÄhrend der laufenden Uruguay-Runde des GATT und bewerten die verschiedenen Optionen für diese LÄnder. Sie berichten, da\ die Koalitionen von EntwicklungslÄndern bisher gemeinsame VorschlÄge gemacht, aber keinen Austausch von Konzessionen ausgehandelt haben. Koalitionen zwischen einer grö\eren Gruppe mittelgro\er IndustrielÄnder und einer kleineren Gruppe von EntwicklungslÄndern sind für die bisher in der Runde erzielten Fortschritte entscheidend gewesen.

Résumé

Les coalitions du «Uruguay Round». - Les auteurs décrivent les coalitions des pays en voie de développement (PVD) pendant le courant «GATT-Uruguay-Round» et évaluent les options différentes pour ces pays. Ils rapportent que les coalitions des PVD ont déjà fait des propositions communes, mais ils n’ont pas encore négocié les échanges de concessions. Des coalitions entre un groupe assez grand constitué des pays développés de moyenne grandeur et un groupe pas si grand constitué des PVD ont été très importantes pour le progrès qu’on a atteint jusqu’à présent dans le «Uruguay Round».

Resumen

Coaliciones en la Ronda de Uruguay. - Los autores describen las coaliciones de países en desarrollo en la actual ronda de negociaciones del GATT, la Ronda de Uruguay, y evalüan las diferentes opciones para esos países. Observan que si bien las coaliciones de países en desarrollo hasta ahora han formulado propuestas comunes, no han negociado un intercambio de concesiones. Las coaliciones entre un grupo mayor de países desarrollados medianos y uno más pequeño de países en desarrollo han sido cruciales para el progreso logrado hasta la fecha en la ronda.
