世界贸易组织（World Trade Organization, WTO）是当今世界最重要的政府间国际经济组织之一，与国际货币基金组织（IMF）和世界银行集团（World Bank Group）一起，构成了当代协调世界经济的三大支柱。相比而言，由于WTO在国际经济关系上协调的范围更广、影响力更大，而且具有不断向新领域拓展的职能，因而被誉为“世界经济领域的联合国”。中国作为WTO的正式成员，既要享受应有权利，充分利用半个多世纪以来以GATT/WTO为核心形成的多边贸易体制和贸易自由化的优秀成果，参与世界市场经济全球化的发展进程；又要承担相应义务，切实履行我国政府在入世谈判中的对外承诺，恪守WTO的基本规则和各项协定。因此，研究WTO有关规则、学习WTO专业知识、掌握WTO基本理念、培养WTO专业人才，成为摆在我们面前的一个长期的重要任务。 正是在这样的背景下，近年来，世界贸易组织（WTO）及其法律规则成为我国高等院校若干专业竞相开设的课程，而且，在国际法学、国际经济与贸易、商务英语等专业中，WTO及其法律规则的课程往往作为双语课程开设，纷纷进行双语课程建设。这就迫切需要一本有关WTO及其法律规则的双语教材，但要编写出一本好的教材是一项艰巨的任务。几年之前，在我国刚刚入世之际，笔者曾主编出版过作为国内第一部WTO英文读物的《WTO英文选读》（与刘光溪博士合作），一度被不少院校选作教材，而事实上该书并不是一本教材，也难以满足各方对教材的需要。曾拟改版为教材，但始终未能动笔。上海作为我国的经济中心城市，正在根据国家战略致力于国际经济、金融、贸易、航运等四个中心建设；上海市非常重视国际经济贸易专业高级人才的培养，把外贸经济本科教育列为上海市十大教育高地之一进行建设，而《WTO规则与运作》即是这一高地建设中的标志性教材之一，遂有今日之本书，名《WTO法律规则（英文版）》（Legal Rules of the World Trade Organization）。 笔者领受《WTO法律规则》双语教材的编撰任务之后，经过一定的准备工作，即展开了具体的编写工作。而且，在2007年9月至12月期间，作为国家留学基金委和上海金融学院联合资助的访问学者，笔者赴美学习考察了美国高校的金融法、国际商法以及WTO法律规则的教学研究情况，在位于洛杉矶地区的美国圣伯纳迪诺加州州立大学（California State University at San Bernardino，CSUSB）等高校进行了近四个月的学习交流。特别是，CSUSB 及UC Riverside的法律博士Gary D. Patterson Gary 教授是本领域的知名专家，经过多次交流、研讨，我邀请他参加了本书体系的研讨和部分内容的编撰。于是，在本人原来已有工作的基础上，我与Gary D. Patterson博士合作完成了这本《WTO法律规则（英文版）》（Legal Rules of the World Trade Organization）双语教材的编著工作。 本教材主要是根据高等院校国际经济与贸易专业《WTO法律规则》双语课程教学的要求而编写，兼顾了法学专业、商务英语、国际金融等专业相关课程教学的需要，同时也可以作为社会各界，特别是与WTO业务相关或对WTO业务感兴趣的专业人士，训练使用英语研究WTO有关法律文件，阅读WTO英文原著文章，用英文处理WTO实际问题的精读材料；可以作为WTO各类专业人才系列培训、研讨活动的教材或参考资料，以及WTO法律英语爱好者的自学教材。本书在内容体系上，既考虑了世界贸易组织（WTO）概论课程的特点，又努力满足WTO法律规则与实务课程的需要，试图找到介绍WTO概况与探讨其法律制度的某种平衡，因此是一个探讨和尝试。本书的编写得到了华东政法大学、复旦大学、上海外国语大学、上海财经大学、上海外贸学院、上海金融学院等高校、研究机构的专家学者的大力支持，在此表示衷心感谢。同时，在本书编写过程中，我们参考了大量的国内外中英文的论著、教材等学术文献，以及WTO官方网站的公开资讯，鉴于本书教材性质，引注或者挂一漏万，在此向广大专家学者表示衷心感谢。 由于水平有限，时间仓促，不足甚至错讹之处在所难免，真诚欢迎批评指正，不吝赐教。电子邮箱:zhangxs@shfc.edu.cn或drzxs@yahoo.cn或cnzxs@xinhuanet.com。
