The GATT agreement on trade related investment measures: Implications for developing countries and their relationship with transnational corporations
分析了发展中国家使用与贸易有关的投资措施（TRIMs）的背景，指出关贸总协定现有规则对TRIMs的适用性不足，并提出了一个规范TRIMs的框架，以增强发展中国家与跨国公司打交道的能力。
This article addresses three issues. First, it argues that the use of trade related investment measures (TRIMs) by LDCs can only be analysed in the context of their dealings with transnational corporations (TNCs). Second, it considers the applicability of existing GATT rules to TRIMs and shows that they are inadequate and can pose difficulties for LDCs seeking foreign direct investment by TNCs. Third, it suggests a framework for regulating TRIMs as one element of host‐TNC relations. The article concludes with proposals for enhancing the capacity of LDCs in their dealings with TNCs.
