Abstract
Initial Negotiating Rights is a useful tool to find a compromise in the WTO bilateral
negotiations, particularly in the accession stage. This policy brief sheds light on the provisions of
INRs in the WTO. It also elaborates a number of case studies, and draws some
recommendations. Particularly, the paper focuses on the INRs and small and medium –sized
countries, and the reasons which pushed these countries to confer INRs.
