Saudia Arabia, the WTO, and American Trade Law and Policy

Abstract

This article will consider whether American trade law toward the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (Kingdom) is "constructive." This author rejects the proposition that American trade law toward the Kingdom has no merits. However, the thesis offered is that this law, on balance, may not be constructive. Moreover, one wonders whether the law is a foundation for even greater resentment against the United States.
